From Emory to NYC Without Switching Trains
Decatur Metro | November 11, 2011There are few things I love better than a good tidbit. Here’s one from the Emory Report that Cathy pointed out…
20. End of the Line
Emory, Georgia, used to be the official name of the train station located at the present-day campus eatery Dooley’s Den at the Depot. Until 1969, when passenger service from the depot ceased, one could travel from the small station to bustling New York City without switching trains. The station was the setting for a story by Flannery O’ Connor.
Great 1945 photo of the station over on the Emory Report webpage if you’re train/Emory/B&W photo-crazy.
