Moved slightly south of its original location, this wooden railroad station ( pictured on p. 226) is unique in the state. A compact blend of Queen Anne and Stick Style, it features paneled, textured wall surfaces, a variety of bracket types and sizes, and intersecting hipped and gabled roofs. Originally, the stationmaster occupied the central room lit by a bay window, with waiting rooms for black and white patrons astride it, an early architectural application of Jim Crow segregation laws newly enshrined in the rewritten 1890 Mississippi Constitution.
