Glenwood station (Arkansas)

The Glenwood Iron Mountain Railroad Depot is a historic train station building in Glenwood, Arkansas. It is a single-story wood-frame structure, located just west of the point were U.S. Route 70 crosses the Union Pacific tracks. It was built c. 1910 by the St. Louis, Iron Mountain and Southern Railway, and used by that railroad and its successor, the Missouri Pacific Railroad until 1969. It was sold that year and relocated out of town for use as a hay barn. The city purchased the building in 1995, and returned it to a location a short way south of its original location, which is now occupied by a major road intersection.[2]
