This map of hearne shows nice straight streets. I think the top right section is where the train station is. Let me know if you know for sure.

They had lots of train decals there, this Union Pacific one caught my eye.

station displays

Here is another room in the station where they have exhibits and lots of old photos, as well as a model train exhibit.

pic of station

I like the Hearne depot because of the big "X" formed by the railroad tracks. Hope you can visit someday and see the depot for yourself. The hours are Wednesday - Saturday 11am - 4pm.
