Barstow Station has undergone three iterations during its time.
A few of the looks is shown here.
Before Barstow station was built, the first McDonalds building was where
the currant parking lot is now and the railroad cars were the front with
parking spaces where the drive in area is now. They used to cook the food
in the old McDonalds and had "runners" hired that took the food
to the first Barstow station.
