Historic train depots are pretty common in Mississippi. However, there’s one that stands out from the rest – and that’s because it’s been transformed into an incredible restaurant. Fittingly named The Tracks, the small town eatery serves up great grub along with a heaping side of history. Take a look:

Please note, The Tracks has permanently closed.

The building that houses it served as a train depot until 1995. Years after being abandoned, it found its new purpose as a restaurant.
