The old A. B. & A. depot and passenger station is one of the most interesting such structures in South Georgia with a Spanish Mission Revival style and Ludowici tile roof. It now houses the Blue & Gray Museum (on the far left) and is presently being restored.

What a beautiful example Brian. Amazing for a small town to have such a large and architecturally interesting RR station Shows again that in many small towns the most impressive buildings were the Methodist Church, the Baptist Church AND the depot.
Was this before (or after) that it was named A B &C- Atlanta, Birmingham and Coast? John Clark
I believe it was before…I’ll check.
My father worked as a trainman/conductor for the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad ( later the Seaboard Coast Line and now CSX) and we lived in Fitzgerald from 1952 to 1959. Our home for most of those years was 409 West Central Ave., less than a block from this depot. Daddy would walk up the alley to work when he was assigned to one of the two passenger trains which came through each day. Occasionally, he would catch a switch engine from the depot out to the yard office/switch yard on the west side of town when he was going out on a freight train. I’m glad to see the old building being used for a good purpose.
