1904 Train Depot

Corpus Christi Area


Right downtown, the small old train depot has been beautifully restored and is filled with historical items and information panels relating to when you could board a train here and connect to the rest of the nation. Despite the posted hours, the depot is plagued by a lack of volunteers and isn't always open as promised.
