Climax Depot The Atlantic Coast Line depot in Climax now stands in a city park at the northeast corner of the small town. (Photo above, April 2011) Photographer Tom Solomon took this 1973 photo of the depot in its original location. (Tom Solomon Photographs, Dothan Landmarks Foundation, Inc. Records, RG030.

To see the uncropped larger image that shows more of the area surrounding the building, see the Tom Solomon Photographs. Climax, a town of 300 in Decatur County, got its name because it was at the top of the Curry Hill grade east of Bainbridge. From here, an ACL branch line once ran southwest to Chattahoochee (River Junction), Florida. Built in 1882 by ACL predecessor Savannah, Florida & Western, it was abandoned in 1984.
