Here are a few excerpts from the May, 1952
edition of the N&W Magazine regarding the
new division office building -- it's the building
behind the Dollar General.
 
1- Stood east and to the rear of the former
    structure built in 1887.
2- Built at a cost of approx. $235,000.
3- First occupied in January, 1952.
4- On the first floor were offices of special agent,
     supervisor of signals, B&B Dept., roadmaster,
     road foreman of engines and trainmaster.
5- On the second floor were the traffic control machines,
     superintendent, asst. supt., chief clerk, chief dispatcher,
     telegraph office, telephone switchboard, car distributor,
     and dispatchers.    .
6- Two sources of power - VEPCO, and the signal line.
7- 8,000 feet of office space (excluding the basement).
