Wytheville station?

[NW Mailing List]

When did the old Wytheville depot disappear?
On both of my trips through there, in '87 and '89, I believe, I figured the 
depot was long gone as I photographed the area around where I thought the 
site was. It was only when VPI posted its shots of the un-N&W-like depot in 
its glory days that I realized the depot was still there, but now 
incorporated into a feed mill. Turns out I actually had photographed the 
thing without realizing what it was. Wish I had explored more and looked 
inside the picture windows. Have the mill and the depot bitten the dust 
since then?
