<P mce_keep="true">[quote user="VerMontanan"] <P>Local people in Sandpoint are in contact with some other communities and the Great American Stations Foundation for help, but if anyone knows of other small or medium-sized communities (or other local entities) that own their own Amtrak station, I'd appreciate receiving that information, which would be passed on to those in Sandpoint who could then possibly contact the other communities for advice and information in their quest to acquire their local facility. Thanks.</P> <P>--Mark Meyer [/quote]</P> <P>The stations in Mineola, Cleburne, and Temple Texas, amongst others, are owned by the city. About ten years ago, at least, Mineola upgraded its station as part of its effort to get the Texas Eagle to stop there. And Cleburne upgraded its station sometime in the last decade, although the Eagle already stopped there. If I remember correctly, the Cleburne upgrade was a function of a roadway relocation project.</P>
