Jacksonville, AL - Train Stations/Depots on Waymarking.com

The tracks have been removed and a paved walking path, Chief Ladiga Trail, has been installed. This path was constructed by the Rails to Trail Conservatory and is 33 miles in length. It connects with the Silver Comet Trail in Georgia. The Silver Comet Trail is over 61 miles long. Both the Silver Comet Trail and Chief Ladiga are fully paved rail-trails built on abandoned railroad lines. The combined Silver Comet and Chief Ladiga trail length is estimated to be over 100 paved miles from Smyrna, Georgia to Anniston, Alabama.

Today the depot contains offices, but a portion is open. Restrooms and water are available inside the depot.

From a marker next to the station:
"The Depot was constructed in 1860 by the Selma, Rome and Dalton (GA) Railroad. It was used as a transfer and storage point for Confederate troops and materials during the War Between the States."
