I was in Hearne Texas yesterday on the way to College Station to see my new grand daughter :) and of course had to do some rail fanning. I have seen this station before but wanted to get some shots of it. It is a 1901 MP/SP station, it is unique in that is was built between a cross over main line giving it a triangle foot print. I plan on taking more measurements and eventually scratch build this beauty. Nice work by the team that restored this truly incredible structure.

It is great when the historic structures of railroading are restored. A crossing of the Missouri Pacific and Southern Pacific sure was once a key place in Texas Railroading.
Your absolute right, this little town hosted one of the largest railroad active eras in Texas history.
