FRIENDS OF THE LAGRANGE RAILROAD DEPOT INC

LA GRANGE, TX

Friends of the LaGrange Railroad Depot Inc. is a non-profit organization based in La Grange, Texas. The group was formed in 1991 with the aim of preserving and restoring the historic La Grange Railroad Depot. The depot, which was built in 1891, served as a vital transportation hub for the town and surrounding areas for many years. However, as the rail industry declined in the mid-twentieth century, so did the depot. It was eventually abandoned and fell into disrepair.

Since its formation, Friends of the LaGrange Railroad Depot Inc. has worked tirelessly to restore the depot to its former glory. The group has raised funds through various events and donations, and has also received grants from the state and federal government. With these funds, they have been able to make significant progress in restoring the building and its surrounding grounds. Today, the depot serves as a museum and community center, hosting a variety of events and activities throughout the year.

In addition to its restoration efforts, Friends of the LaGrange Railroad Depot Inc. also works to promote the importance of preserving historic landmarks and buildings in the community. The group is made up of volunteers who are passionate about preserving the town's rich history and ensuring that future generations can enjoy it as well.
