Chesapeake & Ohio Railroad, Hinton Depot, Along New River near Greenbriar River, Hinton, Summers County, WV

Significance: The extant passenger depot is the fourth structure built in Hinton for the C&O. It was erected following a 1913 fire that destroyed the 1891 brick depot. This reconstructed station was built in the style of a 1902 east end addition. It consists of a 3-story central block flanked by 2-story wings. Red brick is laid in a common American bond and slat shingles cover a hip roof. A small first floor outshoot was later added on the west side of the rear elevation to house a Union News office. In the 1960's two concrete block appendages were added to the rear of the structure.
