The Valdosta Railway is a shortline operated by Genesee & Wyoming to connect Clyattville to the CSX and Norfolk Southern lines at Valdosta. Dean Dasher writes: It was built in the 70’s to replace an old beam type scale they used that was under a shelter.
I grew up a block from where that picture was made. That is the scale house that is used to weigh the train cars. it was built in the 70’s to replace an old beam type scale they used that was under a shelter.

Thanks, Erbie…
