This depot has been moved to the grounds of the Pioneer Florida Museum and Village, at Dade City, FL, about 7 miles from its original location. The Florida Chapter of the Morse Telegraph Club is cooperating with the Museum in the restoration of the telegraph office to its 1950s appearance. (Photos by L. A. Bailey, 1953, Used by permission)
