Former ACL depot getting a facelift
Title:  Former ACL depot getting a facelift
Description:  The former ACL passenger depot in Dothan is getting a much needed facelift. It will be used as a mass transit station, buses only, when completed but it's proximity to the CSX mainline certainly leaves open the option of a return of intercity rail passenger service. The depot served ACL, SCL, and the Amtrak Floridian before the 1979 funding cuts ended rail passenger service to Dothan. The shed closest to the camera has been added during the renovation and was not part of the original depot area however pains were taken to have it match the look of the old depot.

Old ACL passenger depot getting a facelift
Title:  Old ACL passenger depot getting a facelift
Description:  The old ACL passenger depot in Dothan, which was used by Amtrak prior to the demise of the Floridian in 1979, is finally getting some well deserved attention after many fits and starts. The City of Dothan is planning on moving several offices into the depot after renovation including using it as a base for it's small bus system. The entire area is getting some well needed attention as the photo attests to.
