(Note: The official NHL webpage and state-wide NHL list document of the National Park Service erroneously describe the NHL as the entire "Central of Georgia Railroad Shops and Terminal", which is an NRHP listed in 1978. As the detailed Inventory/Nomination for that district explains, the NHL is just the passenger depot and trainshed, a separate NRHP listed in 1976.)
