Hello, Here is a postcard view of the depot that I came across for Fayetteville, Ark. Take care, Rich Ship it on the Frisco!
Fayetteville, AR depot 2009. It is one half Asian restaurant - the other half a bar and grill. So it is a great place to have a nice cold frosty one! They also have a caboose (non-Frisco) and passenger car (non-Frisco) that is bank which set on the siding just east of station in the parking lot.
Glad to see the depot get some life. The caboose as best as I can tell is former Cotton Belt. Do not know the number and I have not got a clue on the coach. I knew the depot was a restaurant, yet did not know on the freight house I may have to eat there some time. Ship it on the Frisco! Murphy Milican

Neat find. Is this is the same structure that would have been rebuilt into the Frisco southwestern-art deco style, or whatever an appropriate architectural title would be for the flat-topped concrete or stucco-depots? Best Regards,
Chris, This structure would not lend itself to remodeling into the contemporary building. The original brick structure was razed to build the current depot. The current building was built in the Pueblo Revival/Mission style that was popular in the mid-twenties.
