Dallas Terminus

Dallas Teminus is the southernmost station on the Dallas and Northern Railroad's current main line. It is located in north Dallas, Texas and houses the headquarters of the company.

Overview
The station in its current shape is roughly modeled after the North Western Railway's station at Tidmouth. There are four terminal tracks and two through tracks within the station building, all laid out in pairs between platforms. A glass roof covers the platform area. Multiple shops and restaurants rent space within the building. There is also a gift shop which mainly carries merchandise of the D&N as well as other railway companies and the Thomas and Friends television series. The station also operates a railway-themed restaurant called The Buffet Car. A large portion of the station is dedicated to the company's headquarters, which includes meeting rooms and the Controller's Office.

On display outside the station's front entrance is a former D&N engine named Black Widower.

The station is directly adjacent to the Dallas engine shed and freight yard, and is very close to the Dallas and Northern Railway Museum.
