    Great call, Patrick!
    As I understand it, the St. Joe depot is the only survivor built by the St. Louis and North Arkansas, which later became the M&NA, which, I believe, built the Leslie depot. That’s what I have seen anyway. I should be more specific in my description. I’ll get that updated and re-posted.
    I hope the Leslie depot gets the attention it needs. Hate seeing these pieces of history go by the boards.

    Thanks!

    Hello… Is anyone aware of access to MoPac depot blueprints? I am interested in seeing them for a few depots I have visited. Was wondering if there might be some kind of online repository. I was hoping they might be in the National Archives database, but I wasn’t able to find anything.
    Thanks!

    Glad you liked the video. Some real nice preservation work going on. A lot of dedicated people saving, what I consider, important pieces of history. The best part of visiting the depots is talking to all the people. Wish I could spend much more time with them. Fascinating stuff.
    I have not seen the book but I will check it out.
    Thanks!
