ATLERS STATION DEPOT

Built by the San Antonio and Aransas Pass Railway in the l880's,
this depot was original located in Muldoon, Texas.
Built with square nails, it has the traditional three part depot
contruction - ticket office with waiting room; business office
with bay window; and back cargo area. Exterior walls are board
and batton construction with wide eaves and decorative supports.
Interior walls are beaded wood with pine flooring.

When the Muldoon Station was closed, the depot was moved
to the Kelly ranch nearby and used for hay storage.
It was purchased by the Antler's Hotel in 1999 and moved to this location
Renovated by Anthony Mayfield and crew, it has reemerged
along side the tracks in Kingsland as the Antlers Station.
