Texas Escapes
"The name is from the Spur Ranch, which was bought and broken up in 1907 - shortly before the Burlington Railroad had proposed a railway line from Stamford. The manager of the Spur interests (the town's name had already been chosen) convinced the railroad it needed to go through what would become Spur. The railroad was convinced and on November 1, 1909 - the town opened as the railroad pulled in."
