HistoryThe Texas and Pacific Railway established a station on the main line at Bunkie in 1882. A town formed around it as a shipping point for cotton and cotton-related industries such as cotton seed oil production. The current depot, built in 1911, is not the original freight depot, but is the only existing reminder of the importance of the railway to the founding of Bunkie.[2][3] The 1911 depot is a two-story brick building alongside the railroad tracks in downtown Bunkie. Of no particular architectural style, the building sits on a heavily stuccoed dado and has a distinctive bay window overlooking the tracks. It is one of only three remaining larger multi-story urban train depots in Louisiana built in the early 20th century, the others are the Central Railroad Station in Shreveport, and the Kansas City Southern Depot in DeQuincy.[2][3] Later yearsThough the building has gone through several changes over the years, it remains easily identifiable as a train depot.[2] The depot was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1991 as the Texas and Pacific Railroad Depot.[1] It was remodeled in 2001 and {{as of|2013|lc=y}} houses a small railroad museum and the headquarters of the Bunkie Chamber of Commerce.[4][3] References1. ^1 {{NRISref|version=2013a}} 2. ^1 2 {{cite web|title=Texas and Pacific Railroad Depot|url=http://www.crt.state.la.us/dataprojects/hp/nhl/attachments/Parish05/Scans/05026001.pdf|publisher=Louisiana Historic Preservation's National Register of Historic Places Database|accessdate=13 January 2015}} 3. ^1 2 {{cite web|url={{NRHP url|id=91000345}} |title=National Register of Historic Places Registration Form: Texas and Pacific Railroad Depot|author=National Register Staff|date=November 1990|publisher=National Park Service|accessdate=March 22, 2018}} With {{NRHP url|id=91000345|title=four photos from 1990|photos=y}}. 4. ^{{cite web|title=Bunkie, La., Awarded Membership in Union Pacific's Train Town USA Registry|url=http://www.uprr.com/newsinfo/releases/community/2013/train_town/0214_bunkie.shtml|publisher=Union Pacific|accessdate=January 13, 2015|date=February 14, 2013}} See also
