Congressman and a federal Election Commission member. Watch the communicators monday on cspan 2. Are cspan cities tour continues with a stop at the santa fe depot. Take a look at some of the unique features of the santa fe depot. A key component of the development of amarillo was its tie to industry and agriculture being shipped out. The railroad was a big part of that. We are here to document the unique features when they built this facility. Right now we are in the baggage room. A lot of the original stuff is still here. Original construction, none of that has changed. This would have been the passenger and Light Commercial freight area. Anythingenger freight, you are traveling with would come across here and be weighed just like what you have on the airplanes today. Your commercial freight would be done on the scales up top. One of the cool things you will notice as we go through the building is the construction of this building. This was billed by railroad engineers, built to last.
