The San Antonio & Aransas Pass railroad station was one of the first depots to be built in San Antonio. Though not on the grand scale of subsequent depots built by other companies, the S.A. & A. P. depot was busy and serviceable. When the S.A. & A.P. was folded into the Southern Pacific in 1925, remaining service moved to their depot. The building was occupied for over ten years by a furniture company and survived until 1939. Located at the corner of S. Alamo and S. Flores, the site is now occupied by a Salvation Army store. The railroad tracks are still in use.
