Old Train Depot

Old Train Depot

The first Walthourville City Hall was housed in the old Walthourville train depot, which was purchased from the Seaboard Coast Line Railroad Company in 1978. In 1980, the building was moved from near the railroad tracks to across the railroad tracks. After being renovated, the old depot was used as the Walthourville City Hall and Walthourville Post Office. In 2009, the old city hall became the Walthourville Police Department. Currently, the building presently houses the Post Office and Walthourville Police Department. (Source: Georgia Railroad History and Heritage)
