Can anyone give the gentleman below any information about this depot.
Carlsbad is on the Santa Fe line (GC&SF) from San Angelo northwest to
Sterling City, abandoned about 1959. The line was built 1911. Any
photos? Which standard plan? If it survived, was it was moved? I
couldn't find anything in books I have on the Santa Fe or on depots.
thanks, Mark

I am looking for information on an old railroad depot located in
Carlsbad, Texas. It was located about 16 miles north of San Angelo,
Texas and served Tom Green county. The depot was close to the
Sanatorium, Texas tuberculosis hospital, also known as the McKnight
Tuberculosis Hospital. I lived in Carlsbad most of my early life and
remember the depot. The railroad tracks passed less than 50 yards
-From the home where I grew up. Any information I could get would be
greatly appreciated.
