Old CofG employees timetables gave rounded off mileage (Station Number) for stations. My hometown of Summerville GA was listed as 404 when in reality it was 404.2. In order to get the closest actual mileage, you probably will need a post merger Southern timetable that lists the same line.

The 1941 Macon division Employee timetable for the CofG shows Dill as a flag stop for passenger trains and located at the 391 milepost. Ozark is shown as being at the 394 milepost so as to give you an idea of where Dill is in relation to Ozark.

Not sure if that answers your question but maybe it helps.

I have been told that you can get this information from the records in the Dale County courthouse. I am going to search the Barbour County records for materials on track between Eufaula and the Barbour- Dale line and possibly check in Ozark for the Dale County records.
