The station was originally built in 1906 by the Texas & Pacific Railway and also used by the Missouri Pacific Railroad. HistoryThe Missouri-Pacific Railroad built the station in 1906. In 1951, as "modernization", the hipped roof was removed and decoration stripped from the station, leaving a rectangular brick building.[4] The Missouri-Pacific Railroad ended service on its Texas Eagle on April 30, 1971, one day before Amtrak took over passenger services. In March 1974, Amtrak's Inter-American was extended from Fort Worth to St. Louis, restoring passenger service to the Missouri-Pacific Railroad's main line but without a stop in Mineola.[2] The Inter-American was replaced by the Eagle in 1981, which in turn was renamed as the Texas Eagle in 1988.[2] On April 14, 1996, Newport station in Arkansas was closed as part of a deal with the Union Pacific Railroad to reopen the stop at Mineola. Trains began stopping at Mineola on April 28.[2] According to Mineola native Willie Brown, the station was reopened as the result of his persistent lobbying of President Bill Clinton. Responding to an Amtrak report that a survey did not reveal anyone wanting to get off in Mineola, Brown reportedly told Clinton: "The reason to stop in Mineola is not to let anybody off. It's to let the people on. It's not that great a place. Look at me! I left!"[3] Amtrak, however, credited "Mineola community leaders" with the successful effort.[4] In 2005, the city began an $800,000 renovation project, funded primarily by the Texas Department of Transportation, to restore the station to its original appearance. A new angled roof was constructed, signage and landscaping built, and the interior converted for use as a railway museum. The station was rededicated on June 10, 2006.[5] References1. ^{{cite web |title= Amtrak Fact Sheet, FY2017, State of Texas|publisher= Amtrak |date= November 2017 |url= https://www.amtrak.com/content/dam/projects/dotcom/english/public/documents/corporate/statefactsheets/TEXAS17.pdf |format= PDF |accessdate= 16 December 2017}} 2. ^1 2 3 4 {{cite web |url=http://tempo-rail.org/tempo-prior-meetings.htm |title=TEXAS EAGLE ROUTE - HISTORICAL TIMELINE |publisher=Texas Eagle Marketing and Performance Organization |accessdate=30 May 2016}} 3. ^{{cite book |last=Brown |first=Willie |title=Basic Brown: My Life and Our Times |publisher=Simon and Schuster |year=2008 |page=255 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=_yT-4b5Rt6MC&lpg=PR4&pg=PA255#v=onepage&q&f=false |via=Google Books}} 4. ^{{cite press release|publisher=Amtrak |url=http://www.amtrak.com/servlet/ContentServer?pagename=Amtrak/am2Copy/News_Release_Page&c=am2Copy&cid=1093554055282&ssid=180 |title=Texas 'Railroad Town' Completes Restoration of Historic Depot |date=June 8, 2006 |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20071108075321/http://www.amtrak.com/servlet/ContentServer?pagename=Amtrak%2Fam2Copy%2FNews_Release_Page&c=am2Copy&cid=1093554055282&ssid=180 |archivedate=8 November 2007 |deadurl=yes |df= }} 5. ^1 2 {{cite web |url=http://www.greatamericanstations.com/Stations/MIN |title=Mineola, Texas (MIN) |publisher=Amtrak |work=Great American Stations |accessdate=30 May 2016}} External links{{commons category inline}}
