Here are some photos of the McGregor, TX, depot mentioned in a
previous post. Taken August 7, 1983. The track along the sunny
side is the Santa Fe main line from Fort Worth to Temple and
Galveston. The track along the shady side is an old Cotton Belt
line from Corsicana, down through Waco, through McGregor and
Gatesville, to Hamilton, and then forking to Comanche and to
Stephenville (both on the old Ft. Worth & Rio Grande, owned by
Frisco and later Santa Fe). Don't know how much of this is still
around. It didn't even make it to Gatesville in the 80s
(Gatesville station was in a Wal-Mart parking lot) and I know
hasn't go as far as McGregor in a few years.
