The International & Great Northern (later, Missouri Pacific) had a depot in
Bryan Texas built just after the turn of the 20th century when they built
through that town. It burned in the 1940's I think, I learned somewhere, and
was replaced by a replacement structure that lasted until it was razed by UP in
1990.
Someone needs to know the exact date that the earlier station burned for the
purpose of applying for a historical marker, and it's tedious to browse through
a decade or more of newspapers on microfilm. :-) Does anyone out there know the
date?
She's working on some other leads, but is under a deadline so I was hoping
someone has some information.
