Dispatching Office |
| Description: |
Southern Railway CRESCENT DIVISION dispatcher Guy C. Wilemon was at work in the station at Hattiesburg, Mississippi on 13 June 1982. Most of the time there was one dispatcher here and his territory included the Alabama Great Southern between Chattanooga and Meridian, and the New Orleans & Northeastern between Meridian and New Orleans, but on first trick weekdays there was additional dispatcher for the NO&NE. The CTC board covered the former AGS between Birmingham and Meridian. It had been installed at Birmingham in late 1951 when the second main track was removed between those two locations; but it was relocated to Hattiesburg around 1965 when the AGS dispatchers were relocated here. The AGS and the NO&NE became the CRESCENT DIVISION in 1968 and the NO&NE was merged into the AGS in 1969. The Norfolk Southern merged the CRESCENT DIVISION into the ALABAMA DIVISION in 1987, and the Hattiesburg dispatchers moved to Birmingham in 1989. |
