Pauls Valley (Amtrak: PVL) is an Amtrak station in Pauls Valley, Oklahoma. The station is serviced by the daily Heartland Flyer , which travels from Oklahoma City, Oklahoma to Fort Worth, Texas.
The city's first rail station was opened in 1903 by the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway (now BNSF Railway). [2] It received passenger service from opening until 1933, [2] then again from 1948 to 1979 through the Texas Chief route (later renamed Lone Star).
In 1984, the station was nominated for the National Register of Historic Places alongside another Santa Fe depot in Lindsay, but the nomination was rejected. [2] Both stations later received separate nominations in 1985 and 1986, which were approved. [3]
In 1985, the Santa Fe planned to demolish the station, but the Pauls Valley Historical Society successfully lobbied to preserve the building. It was purchased by the city in 1989 and was restored in 1991. It currently serves as a museum operated by the Historical Society, whose collection includes a Santa Fe locomotive and a Frisco Line caboose. [4]
After the Heartland Flyer began service in 1999, the city built a new station house with federal TEA-21 funding, which opened in June 2002. The small structure, consisting only of a waiting room, has a façade reminiscent of the Santa Fe station. [4]
