The Q. & C. Depot, Walton, Kentucky 
on Locust Street, on what was later the Southern, and is now the Norfolk Southern Railroad, 
The Q & C was the Queen and Crescent, from Cincinnati to New Orleans.

“The new depot and stock-pens on the Southern road at this point [Walton] are completed and Mr. C. M. Carlisle has the honor of the first shipment of stock from here.  The depot building is a first-class structure, large and commodious, with an elegant finish.  The side-track at the depot is now necessary for the convenience of permanent business.”  The Commonwealth, a Covington newspaper, November 7, 1877.
