Welcome To Dublin, Texas

I followed the signs and pulled into this town. It’s small so I was not expecting to see as many attractions as I did. I actually spent quite a bit of time at the library with the Librarian who gave me some good insight into the city. I highly recommend stopping there.

Dublin didn’t get its name until 1860 and the arrival of the railroad in 1881 helped to increase its popularity. The old train station still stands. Not sure if its the original one though. No trains stops there today.

The city is fascinating, so head over and take a look.
