The Guilford station was modest and for freight only and stood at the junction of the Patuxent Branch and the Howard Granite Company siding that traveled up the south side of the Little Patuxent River. It was located about 250 from the Guilford Pratt Bridge, was listed as station C104, had a water tower for the engines, with a platform about 200 feet long and 25 feet wide. Dallas Elmer Waters of Savage was the first B&O Agent responsible for the Guilford station as he was the sole agent for the entire Patuxent Branch line.
Waters was born in Savage on August 13, 1868 to Chewisco Franklin Waters and Lucinda Phelps and was the Register of Voters for Howard County’s District 6 in 1896 before being listed as a clerk in the 1900 census. He was a B&O freight agent by 1904 and the same appeared as his occupation in the 1910 census and the B&O listings of agents in 1913, 1922, and 1928. He was also the postmaster for Savage from 1914 until 1937 just before his death the following year. Waters is buried in the Savage Cemetery.
