Carthage Junction Depot

The Carthage Junction Depot project began the restoration and renovation of the historic but endangered structure into a multipurpose space for local artists to display their work, encouraging greater appreciation for the arts. When completed, the space will also serve to preserve the history of rail in Smith County with a museum devoted to the history of railroads in Smith County as well as an exhibition dedicated to war veterans who set out from the original depot. The remodeled space will also include an internet café and kayak/bike rental space.
