Depot Friday: Katy Depot Maud, OK...
Author: oklachaser

I found this picture of the Katy Depot in Maud, OK circa 1903 on a website about forgotten places in Oklahoma. I don't know who took the photo but I thought it was a neat picture. 

Thanks for looking.

I believe that the depot is still there. But it is in itty bitty pieces! :-(

PS: Looking at Historic Aerials topo map of 1974. I find that there was also a wye at Maud.
Here is an aerial view. You can still see the outline of the wye.
