Talk:Fort Worth Central Station

Untitled
If this is the station that I think it is (I am not in the area), then this is a fairly old facility, and I'm guessing it originally served the M-K-T railroad given the north-south orientation. However I am almost positive that The Texas & Pacific Depot used to be the Amtrak station in Fort Worth. At any rate the Amtrak trains used to use the former T&P/then MoPac/now UP line that passed through Arlington so it would make sense those trains would've ended up at the former T&P station. At any rate it would be interesting to read more about the station(s) history, if possible. -- Gyrofrog (talk) 02:48, 28 October 2007 (UTC)


 * The Intermodal Transportation Center has been constructed within the last 5 years, it was thus never used for passenger service prior to Amtrak. The former T&P station is now used by Trinity Railway Express (with condo development on the upper floors).  The former AT&SF station (which was used by Amtrak until the ITC opened) has been totally refurbished and restored to its original glory, and is now used as a special events center, known as Ashton Station.RI-Bill 22:06, 28 October 2007 (UTC)


 * I just checked it out on Google Earth and Flickr. The Santa Fe station is now owned by the University of Texas at Arlington. Here's the photo for the station next to that one, which I just found was listed on the National Register of Historic Places. DanTD (talk) 13:51, 26 November 2008 (UTC)
