Conyers


Conyers' old Georgia Railroad depot, built in 1891-92 (another source gives the date as 1898), is unusual in Georgia with its two-story center section.

The station has been restored by the Rockdale County Historical Society and is now used as a meeting and banquet facility.

The county seat of Rockdale County, Conyers is a city of 12,000 on the east side of metro Atlanta.

A more recent photo showing the former freight room at the east end of the depot. 

A 1953 photograph of a Georgia Railroad freight train stopping at the depot is online at the Vanishing Georgia website.
