Description: Houston, TEXAS - Southern Pacific RR - Grand Central Station - 1934: The Southern Pacific was represented by three railroads. The original company was called Southern Pacific Railroad, the second was called Southern Pacific Company and the third was called Southern Pacific Transportation Company. The third Southern Pacific railroad, the Southern Pacific Transportation Company, is now operating as the current incarnation of the Union Pacific Railroad. A series of Grand Central Station buildings served Houston’s rail traffic from the late 1880s until 1959. In 1856 the Houston and Texas Central Railway Company (HTC) laid the first tracks from Houston toward the interior of the state. The line constructed its rail yard along Railroad Street, north of Washington Avenue, and built a small depot, the Texas Central Depot, on Railroad Street at 4th Street. Texas had only about 400 miles of railroads in 1860 and virtually all of that radiated out from Houston. This Linen Era postcard, published in 1934, is in good condition. C. T. Art-Colortone. No. 4A-H1422. Seawall Specialty Co. Houston. Texas.
