Hawkinsville Depot The Southern Railway depot at Hawkinsville, built around 1900, still stands, although not in as picturesque a setting as in this old postcard. It is now used as a scale house for a local agribusiness. Hawkinsville, the county seat of Pulaski County in middle Georgia, is a city of 4,230 people.   Georgia's Railroad History & Heritage.
