Geocache Description:

This cache is in Historic Downtown Elgin, Tx.

Elgin Depot Museum

•The Elgin Depot Museum tells the story of the town's early history and the contributions of the railroads, agriculture and entrepreneurs. The museum, in an award-winning restoration of the Union Depot, also has a series of changing exhibitions.

Though the Union Pacific Railroad operates trains on the nearby tracks, the depot was actually named for the union of the Southern Pacific and Missouri, Kansas and Texas (known as "Katy") railroads, which both used. The two railroads made Elgin a major transportation crossroad in the Southwest.

Note - This cache is placed with permission and it is not necessary to go inside to find it.

Congrats to Joey&Deb for the FTF honors here!!!!!!
