Four photographs showing various views of the Texas & Pacific Railway buildings in Marshall, Texas. Two images at the top show a wide view of railroad tracks in front of three buildings: a tall, two-story building with wrap-around porches to the left; a smaller, one-story building in the center; and a long building with a covered loading bay where several train cars are parked. The lower images show a close-up view of the first two buildings (left) and of the third building (right). Text at the bottom of the mat says, "T&P General Office at Marshall, Texas 1873-1884 later used to house the early T&P hospital."
