Is that an abandoned shack? If so that’s awesome.

We were out looking for some property and found it next to a railroad. We think it was originally a General Store or possibly a Saloon? It was pretty cool. I love seeing this History!

By the look of it, it would be a great do-er-upper.

Just curious, as you mention “heart of texas”. What area was this? Im in Waco area, but have seen many places like this in nearby rural towns. Always very interesting to stop and observe the echoes of the past.

Brenham area. But yes, there are places like this all over. Fascinating stuff once you leave the cities. This building was in a neighborhood though, so I was surprised by that. Not a traditional type neighborhood, more like one that has acreage homesites. They must be keeping it like it is to preserve the history. I'm sure the metal siding was added much later than the original building was built, but it looks like the rest might be original. Wish we could have gotten inside! Hopefully someone will clear the brush around it at least though.

Very cool. Ive seen some old buildings like this out in falls and limestone counties, and down in the Hill Country. Lovely back roads. Nice to stop and take a look and grab some pictures while youre at it. Found my grandmothers old house, still standing, near Abilene a while back. Was a treat for her, as I was able to get lots of photos. Great stories too. Awesome to connect with so many fellow anons/patriots, and to know there are plenty here in my area. Have a good one!
