Warner Robins Depot Warner Robins' red brick Georgia Southern & Florida depot was built in 1943-44 when the place was known as Wellston. It replaced a smaller structure that was inadequate for the rapidly growing town's needs. The railroad closed the depot in 1970. It is now Warner Robins' welcome center. Adjacent to the building is the Elberta depot, moved to here a few years ago from the Houston County fairgrounds. (U.S. 129 at Watson Blvd., Photo by Chris Little.)
