Depot Public Library

The library is housed in the 1928 depot terminal of the Cisco & Northeastern Railroad, which began local service that same year. The 65-mile rail route was established primarily to haul cattle to markets in Fort Worth. Displays include a collection of historic photographs from the railroad's first day of operation on May 4, 1928, as well as other artifacts and memorabilia related to railroad's operation. Open 9 a.m.–5 p.m. Tue.–Thu. 120 E. Chestnut St. 940/849-3076.
