Page 153, interesting photo of a 2-story, Missouri Pacific Depot, Austin,  
Texas, late 1870's, replaced in 1888 and again in 1948. Page also includes 
one  of the first Pacific type locomotives Number 1118 built in 1902.
 
Page 189, pictured in 1920's, the 2-story station in San Antonio where  
Teddy Roosevelt entrained for his Cuban Expedition with the Rough Riders in  
1898. Station was built by the San Antonio & Aransas Pass Railroad which  
became part of the Missouri Pacific.

Anyone  have the book  'Down at the Depot- American Railroad Stations 
from  1831 to 1920' by Edwin P Alexander.

Again I am interested to know if  any Texas depots included.
