Summary

Description

Rock Island Train Depot, Asher OK - 1902. The station was located at the west end of Main ST, west of what is now US 177. The Stationmaster, Bill Bailey, is pictured. On October 12, 1900, the Choctaw, Oklahoma and Gulf (CO&G)* bought the Shawnee to Tecumseh Railway branch from the Tecumseh Railway Co. and promptly extended the branch to Asher. For the next 40 years, Asher would serve as the termination point for the branch and its engine, "Old Beck."

  • The CO&G was later taken over by Rock Island.
