Notes
Cardington The passenger station was on Railroad Street between 2nd and Walnut with the freight house on the opposite side of the tracks. The white building in the foreground of the first photo is the Mills Brothers and Conger Flour Mill (that was its name in 1903, in 1885 it was called the Dawson, Wherry & Co. Flour Mill).

Joint station used by both railroads.
Marengo  
Mt. Gilead This station was at the corner of High & Rich Streets. It was torn down in 1924 and replaced by the Mt. Gilead Shortline brick station listed above which was built just a few feet to the west (toward Iberia St.). The CCC&St.L leased the Mt. Gilead Shortline. The station is of CCC&I vintage, appearing on maps from 1885. After 1924, the CCC&St.L also had a freight house on the west side of Iberia Street.
Mt. Gilead This station was located on the north side of West High Street. It was built in 1882, and torn down in 1920s when it became redundant when the NYC leased both the T&OC and CCC&St.L. In 1924 all passenger service for the town shifted to the brick Mt. Gilead Shortline depot at Iberia & High Streets.
