Station Number: 99
Code Number: 0149

The 1937 Side Track Record listed a 2080' passing siding (track number 824) and a 580' team track (track number 825) in Peake. The C&O had a station with an agent listed here in 1948. The team track was retired in 1942 along with a portion of the passing siding. I’m not sure when the agency was discontinued, but Peake was retired as a non-agency station December 11, 1961. The sation was retired in November, 1962, though 633' of track 824 remained. It was retired in 1978.
