Forsyth The 1899 Central of Georgia Railway depot at Forsyth, now a local history museum, was designed by Bruce & Morgan of Atlanta. Above, some of the exhibits in the museum. One of the state's oldest depots, built in 1845 for the Macon & Western Railroad, still stands on the north side of the 1899 depot in Forsyth. It is now (2004) being restored. Forsyth, in middle Georgia, is a city of 4,000 people. It is the county seat of Monroe County.   Georgia's Railroad History & Heritage. Copyright, Steve Storey.
