Cregut depot

After many a mile travelled and a sucessful Ivy Creek crossing, we begin to feel right at home again as we enter the beautiful town of Cregut.

As the central hub for passenger service on the C & H line, Cregut Depot is bustling with activity. This flagship station offers full time Railway Express Agency and Western Union Cable service.

spacious waiting room

Our spacious waiting room welcomes road weary travelers with modern amenities such as state-of-the-art coal fired central air conditioning.

Experienced ticket agents are on hand to facilitate connections between all passenger routes served by C & H and other feeder lines.

full REA service

Well over a hundred years ago, a system of high speed electronic data transmission traveling near the speed of light operating 24/7 came into being. No, not the internet...telegraphy!

We are fortunate to have on staff more experienced practicioners of this lost art than you can shake a stick at. We're talkin' pure-dee railroad code here, the mother tongue, not that international thing.

24/7 Western Union service

Among those that don the green eye shades and sleeve garters at the C & H are Ken Bauman of Union Pacific Railroad and Dick Smith of the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe, Missouri Pacific, Western Pacific, and Denver and Rio Grande Western Railroads (whew!).

Recognised masters of the Vibroflex Don Reser and Richard Spain both from the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway also pound brass at the C & H.
