Homesteading in Trego County

Trego Station

 In the west side of present day WaKeeney, Trego Station was created by the railroad. It consisted of two section houses for railroad workers. When the railroad moved west, non-railroad workers moved into the section houses. A water tank remained for railroad purposes.

The ethnicity of its settlers remains unknown.
