Gulf, Colorado and Santa Fe Railroad Passenger Station


Gulf, Colorado and Santa Fe Railroad Passenger Station is located on 1501 Jones Street in Fort Worth, Texas. The depot was built by the Gulf, Colorado and Santa Fe Railroad in 1900 and renovated in 1938. It was originally called the Fort Worth Union Depot. Other tenant railroads at the station were the Chicago, Rock Island and Gulf Railway, the St. Louis–San Francisco Railway and the Southern Pacific Railroad.
The station was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1970. From 1971 to 2002, it was used as Fort Worth's Amtrak station. In 2002, it passed into private ownership, and became an 800-seat venue for weddings, corporate dinners, and other special events, under the name "Ashton Depot".
There was an additional Fort Worth station, hosted by the Texas & Pacific Railway on W. Lancaster Avenue, the T&P Station.
