The Santa Fe Passenger and Freight Depot is a former Santa Fe Railroad station located at 150 Central Valley Highway in Shafter, in the southern San Joaquin Valley within Kern County, California. [2]
The San Francisco and San Joaquin Valley Railroad was built in the late 1890s and later became the Valley Division of the Santa Fe.
The station was built in 1917 to serve Shafter, which was at the time a small farming community. [2]
The building's design followed the "standard combination freight depot" Number 2-A plan developed by Santa Fe Railroad engineers in 1911. The design originally included a porch supported by columns, a ticket office, a waiting room, a freight room, and a baggage room. [2]
In 1938, the porch was enclosed and became the new waiting room so the inside of the station could be used for office space, which was needed to handle increased freight service. [2]
The Santa Fe Railroad closed the station in 1978. [2]
The Santa Fe Railroad donated the station to the Shafter Historical Society in 1979 which relocated it in 1980. The station now functions as the historical society's Shafter Depot Museum. [2] [3]
The depot was added to the National Register of Historic Places on January 19, 1982. [1]

The Fremont, Elkhorn & Missouri Valley Railroad Passenger Depot, also known as the Chicago and North Western Railway Passenger Depot and presently as the Douglas Railroad Interpretive Center, was built in 1886 in Douglas, Wyoming to accommodate traffic on the Fremont, Elkhorn and Missouri Valley Railroad's (FE&MV) terminus at the newly built town. The depot was built as a fairly small, cautious investment in a possibly ephemeral frontier town. Immediately following the completion of the depot Douglas saw an epidemic of typhoid fever and the worst winter in a generation, and the railroad decided to push on to Casper for its terminus. The town's population declined from 1600 in 1886 to 900 in 1888. By 1891 Owen Wister reported that Douglas had a population of about 350. However, by 1910 Douglas had 2246 residents and hosted the Wyoming State Fair. The presence of the fair stimulated rail traffic, while the FE&MV merged with the Cheyenne and Northern Railway in 1903. In 1905 oil development started. In the 1950s coal mining began for the Dave Johnson Power Plant and the railway expanded its Douglas facilities to accommodate the traffic, closing the original depot and building a larger facility. The depot was acquired from the railroad's successor, the Chicago and North Western Railway, by the city in 1990.
