Runnymede, KS

The Kansas City Mexico & Orient built several 16x36 standard depots along its main line in Kansas in the early 1900's, but Runnymede is the only known survivor. The most noticeable difference between this and the 16x40 standard represented by Milton, KS is the pointed bay window. Following retirement in 1951, Runnymede found its way to Wichita, where it served for a while as a restaurant. When Ken Talbert photographed the depot in 2000, it was vacant.
