Notes: Locating this depot was similar to a road rally search. Multiple 'train' sites ignored this depot and little reference was see. Then checking an abandoned blog I recalled called Two Egg - reference was made to this depot. See Two Egg's photo below taken in 2014.
"Despite its antebellum prosperity, Marianna had to wait until after the War Between the States (or Civil War) for the railroad to arrive and connect it to points east and west. There had been many promises and speculations over the years. In 1881, however, Col. W.D. Chipley and Frederick R. De Funiak joined with others to found the P&A Railroad, so named because it would connect Pensacola on the west with the Apalachicola River on the east. The line was incorporated by the Florida Legislature on March 4, 1881." Source: Two Egg Blogspot Notes: Locating this depot was similar to a road rally search.
