Atkins Tanks

[NW Mailing List]

Your photo was taken from the tank, just as Gary Price suggested.  The old
depot house track is still there, and now known as the Virginia House
switch that was used by the old furniture plant.  The west switch for the
house track was taken out many years ago, and now only the east switch
remains.

The photo was taken from the tank looking west toward Marion.  The road
crossing visible is now known as Virginia Highlands Avenue.
