This is way cool.

Most people toss milk jugs in the recycling bin, but they can become a vertical garden.

BLYTHEWOOD DEPOT 1870

The Blythewood Depot opened for service in 1870 when the town was named "DOKO". After 98 years in service, and having outlived its time, it was discontinued on June 30, 1968.Removed from the right of way three months later.

For many years it served the people and the local economy of the
area in many important ways.
Such as:
All inbound and outbound freight shipments, both carload and less carload.
Ticket sales and baggage checking for passengers boarding passenger trains.
Handling U. S. Mail in Railway Postal Cars.
Express shipments in and outbound.
Western Union telegrams.

Before telephone service in the area, the Western Union Telegraph
was an important factor in the lives of the local residents.

Other than U. S. mail, there was no other communication facilities.
There were times when the local agent would go to the depot on
Sundays or at night to send telegrams for someone who had serious sickness or death in family, etc. I am sure no agent refused anyone.

Lets be thankful for what the old depot did for us over the years..
It was sad to see an old landmark go away.
