started thinking this Harvey House must have been a big deal. So, I did a
little Googling & sure nuf, it was .... Tidbit About the Harvey House: (src: http://texasplainstrail.com/plan-your-adventure/historic-sites-and-cities/sites/harvey-house-slaton) During the heyday of the
passenger railway system, train travel afforded a certain level of luxury and
elegance now lost in todays fast and furious modes of transportation. The
comfort of rail travel, with its down-filled sleepers, white-linen dining
cars, and drowsy, rhythmic staccato of steel wheels on tracks, made for
pleasant and relaxing travel while surrounded by the creature comforts
reminiscent of a fine hotel. But the train wasnt the only purveyor of
railroad luxury. The Slaton Harvey House, a landmark Santa Fe railroad depot
built in 1912 and located in the Plains Trail Region community of Slaton,
offers an example of the services that once accompanied railroad travel. The
Harvey House, part of a chain created by Scottish immigrant Fred Harvey in
1876, provided fine dining to passengers preparing to travel on the Santa Fe
line, serviced courtesy of a bevy of hostesses known as the Harvey Girls. The
two-story Mission Revival structure features concrete walls a foot thick and
a parapet decorated with Santa Fe Railway symbols. Today, the Slaton Harvey
House has been restored to its former status as host to travelers, providing
bed and breakfast service and archive to artifacts and memorabilia of the
Slaton railroad heritage. Lubbock Avalanche-Journal article mentions Mr.

Jul 4, 2014 at 5:55 PM josephine.musico@lubbockonline.com SLATON - Hungry passengers
rushed off rail cars while kitchen staff hurried to prepare their perfect
meals. Despite the rush,
everything seemed perfect. From the spotless tablecloths to the newly
polished silverware and the friendly waitresses, Fred Harvey knew how to run
a restaurant. He was very particular
over everything. His dream was to have Harvey Houses from Chicago to San
Francisco, and that dream came true, said Jolene Fondy,
whose parents worked at branches of the famed railroad stop. Slatons Harvey House
operated as a restaurant from 1912 to about 1942. One of about a dozen such
establishments in Texas and a larger number in the rest of the Southwest, its
location along the Santa Fe Railroad brought customers from pretty much
everywhere. Calvin Lamb can recall
sounding a gong each morning to announce breakfast. The longtime area
resident worked as a busboy and dishwasher during the Harvey Houses heyday
in the early 1940s. Visits to the historical
building bring back some great memories, and - due to the vast workload -
some not-so-great ones. Now 89, Lamb still shudders
a bit when he remembers being ordered to clean the restaurants windows every
Friday. Hed put hours of effort into washing every inch of the panes. Just
when he thought the job was complete, his manager, Mr. Bowman, would adjust
his bifocals, examine the glass and tell him he missed a spot. The bossy chef, Mr. Wells,
wasnt much easier to work for. The waitresses - known as Harvey girls -
could attest. He would say, Get back in
there and turn in that order right, Lamb said. He was ornery. But a perk of the job was
certainly the food. What customers considered a quick off-road treat was for
Harvey House staff a daily indulgence. When Lamb was new on the
job, his co-workers fixed him some hotcakes. The hungry teenager dived
straight into the meal. They were so good, I was
eating them plain, he said. Mr. Wells said, Why dont you put some syrup
on those? I did, and it made them even better. Working conditions also got
easier when Lamb gained the respect of his managers wife. Mrs. Bowman seemed
more lenient with the staff she considered her favorites, and Lamb was
surprised but pleased to become one of those lucky workers. His wife was the boss -
she called the shots, he said. I dont know why she took a liking to me. The administrator of the
overall company had been dead 40 years at the time but left a legacy of
perfection to which he expected Harvey House branch managers to adhere. Fred
Harvey was not known to accept anything less than the best. Fred Harvey was real particular about his tables. It was always fine china
and linen, said Sue Davis, vice president of the Slaton Railroad Heritage
Association. Davis, a retired
schoolteacher, leads efforts to restore the building. She and other volunteers
give tours by appointment and use it for events such as weddings and bingo
games. Upstairs, four bedrooms can
be rented as bed-and-breakfast suites. Another room downstairs is being
renovated to fill the same purpose. The history has been
wonderful, Davis said. Now we want to make that still alive for generations
to come. With its location by the
train tracks, Slaton seemed like a natural spot for a Harvey House. Before
the company was created - Fred Harveys first off-railroad restaurants were
introduced in 1875 in Wallace, Kansas, and Hugo, Colorado - passengers were
more limited. It was a real rudimentary
way to travel. They might find a restaurant, or they might not, said Tony Privett, a former president of the Slaton Railroad
Heritage Association. That changed with Harvey
Houses. Strategically located a few hours apart from each other throughout
the Southwest, the restaurants could be considered the countrys first
fast-food joints. Without sacrificing quality,
focus was on speed and efficiency. Railroad staff took meal orders from
passengers while the train was still moving, then communicated them via
telegraph to Harvey House chefs. Their food was waiting when
they arrived. Very quickly when they sat
down they were served what theyd ordered, Privett
said. It was a really ingenious way to eat. To further speed the
process, Harvey girls arranged passengers cups and saucers by their drink
orders. Cups were placed right-side up for coffee drinkers and upside down
for hot tea, while a titled cup signified iced tea and a cup placed away from
the saucer meant milk. But while customers had
only about 20 minutes to eat before they returned to the road, staff stayed
longer. Most, in fact, actually lived there. The Harvey girls - many of
whom had moved from out of state to take the job - had rooms upstairs. Lamb
had his own living space away from them. Since then, some parts of
the building have changed more than others. The industrial sink where
he washed so many plates, for instance, has been replaced with a smaller,
home-kitchen-style one. The red tile floor, though, looks just as it did
three-quarters of a century ago. We scrubbed that floor
with soapy water every morning, Lamb said with a sigh. |
