The people of Cave Springs answered the call for donations by the Cave Springs Historical Society to save this old Chesapeake & Ohio [C&O] caboose from where it languished at the old depot. I made this photo a few years ago so I imagine the caboose has been completely restored by now.
I am not very sure about the cited early history of the railroad through Cave Spring. During that time period, the C&O was building in Virginia and West Virginia, nowhere near Georgia. What is the source of that information?
I’ve removed that information, Steve. It came from a sign at the caboose, obviously not well-cited. I appreciate you pointing it out.
