Smyrna Railroad Depot
A combined freight and passenger house, the Smyrna Railroad Depot was erected in 1851, and replaced in 1873. It was a direct result of the charter granted by the State of Tennessee on Dec. 11, 1845, to the Nashville & Chattanooga Railroad to connect this area with the seaports of Charleston and New Orleans. The depot is the brick, rectangular-shaped structure that lies due west, just across the tracks.
Marker is at the intersection of Lowry Street (U.S. 41) and Jefferson Street, on the right when traveling south on Lowry Street.
