This electrical substation for the Tarrant County Traction Company's
Interurban still stands at the north end of Spinks Airport, south of
Crowley - Rendon Rd and east of I-35W,
in southern Fort Worth. Photo by C. Martin.

In the TCTC's final days, this blacktop street was the highway
entrance to Burleson, Texas. The interurban crossed here and the rails
are still in place, although the city of Burleson has covered them again.

This was the TCTC's Burleson Depot. Although unoccupied when the picture
was taken, in later years it was used as a newspaper and printing office.
