MOVING TO OUR PRESENT LOCATION OCTOBER 3, 2003.
CMR moved into the former Railway Express Agency Building as the first occupant after the $31 million refurbishment of the former Southern Railway Greensboro station (now the Douglas Galyon Transportation Complex). We'd been in the former Cone Mills Revolution knitting mill as a temporary home while the 2001-2003 renovation took place, having formerly been located in the station's west waiting room since the 1970's. Although there were still tasks to be done, the entire move took one day, with trains running by evening. Photos of that day are below.
