Sanderson group bids to save historic depot and bunkhouse
The Sanderson Heritage Association negotiates with Union Pacific to buy and preserve the 1883 depot and bunkhouse as officials cite a bad state of repair. A $450,000 state grant was rejected due to high required match and unseen costs. Union Pacific would lease the site for 20 years with 30 days notice after year ten. Cliff McSparran says UP plans to keep the depot for five more years while supporting preservation efforts.
