The Louisville and Nashville Depot is a historic railroad station in Evergreen, Conecuh County, Alabama, United States.
The station building was constructed by the Louisville & Nashville Railroad in 1907 at a cost of $14,911 (adjusted for inflation). During the early 19th century, the station served as a gathering place for one of the social occasions of the small town, the meeting of the Sunday afternoon train.[1]
It is now in a very good state of preservation, although it was threatened by demolition during the 1970s.[1] The station was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on April 3, 1975.
The last train service to utilize the station was Amtrak's Gulf Breeze, which stopped in Evergreen during its run from 1989 to 1995.
The one-story wood-frame building rests atop a low concrete foundation. It is roughly cruciform in plan, measuring 167feetx49feetft (xft) at its widest points.
