Description

The Bus Station and Café was located on the north side of U.S. Highway 82 just east of the intersection of Alabama Highway 17 in Reform. The building just to the left in the photo was a service station. At that time there were service stations on each of the four corners.

After the bus station closed, probably in the 1950s, the café continued to operate using the part of the building on the left that had been used as the bus station as a private dining room.

After the café closed, a business was located in the building until the 1970s when the building was torn down.

The area where the bus station and service station were located are part of Advanced Chevrolet dealership lot in 2019.
