Argyle (Roanoke) |
This section house, originally at Roanoke, has been moved a few miles north to Argyle. |
Shane Murphy now owns this building, which houses his T&P/MKT model RR. Thanks, Shane, for sharing this photo. |

Arlington |
The Arlington depot was razed many years ago, but original blueprints for the station have been discovered, and a replica may be built in a nearby city park. |

Baird UPDATE! Restoration of the Baird depot is now underway - click here for more information.

Ballinger |
Ballinger was the southern terminus of the T&P subsidary Abilene & Southern. A small remnant of that line still switches industries on Abilene's south side |

Big Spring |
Big Spring was a crew change location and the division point between the Baird and Toyah subdivisions. |
|
|
Just south of the yard is "Railroad Plaza", with a UP caboose (left) and this repainted T&P boxcar (below). |
The T&P depot at Big Spring has been torn down, but this nice portrait of it hangs in the V.A. hospital. |

Brazos This tiny community is in Palo Pinto County (MP 303.4). It's on FM 129, about a mile west of where the railroad crosses the Brazos River. |

Buffalo Gap The irony, of course, is that the T&P was SUPPOSED to go through Buffalo Gap in 1881, but Abilene's backers "stole" it away. Now at last, Buffalo Gap has a T&P station! |

Colorado City |

This beautiful rock fence surrounds an historic home in Colorado City. |
When the Colorado City depot was torn down, a previous owner of the home bought the rock to build this fence. |
Thanks to the current homeowner for his kind permission to take these pictures. |
