BONNIE & CLYDE'S HIDEAWAYS


THE DABBS RAILROAD HOTEL
This is the last-standing railroad hotel on the Llano River
It began operation in 1907, and was a home-away-from-home for
railroad crewmen, who stayed there overnight and returned to
Austin the next day.

OTHER HAUNTS OF BONNIE & CLYDE




In the heart of the historic Stockyard District, originally constructed
in 1907, as The Stockyard Club, where wealthy cattlemen stayed when in
Fort Worth. Reputedly another favorite haunt of Bonnie and Clyde.

It was in 1933, while hiding out from the laws, that Bonnie and Clyde
had checked into Room 305. Here, they had a perfect view of E. Exchange
and N. Main, an excellent lookout for approaching lawmen. A gun belonging
to Bonnie was left there. This hotel, with it's 52 rooms, has been restored
and furnished in Old West decor. It's bar, with saddles for barstools, is
an attraction in itself.

THE ARBUCKLE MOUNTAINS


A geologist who had contacted the Hideout believes that the various photos
showing Bonnie and Clyde and company posing by a rocky outcropping were likely
taken  in Southwest Oklahoma, in the Arbuckle Mountains there. He stated that
a geologist can always tell you where those Bonnie and Clyde roadside photos
were taken - there aren't any roadcut rock formations in the country that look
like the Arbuckle Mountains of southwest OK. After the oil companies - the
biggest employer of geologists in the country is the FBI. Specialists in
mineralogy - scrape the soil off your shoe and tell you where you been.
(To that geologist who had contacted me, please get in touch with me again - Thanks!)



Opelousas, the third oldest city in Louisiana is the
parish seat of St. Landry Parish. It is located at the
juncture of Interstate 49 and U.S. Highway 190. It was
in the now defunct Star Barber Shop,located in Shute’s
Drug Store on the corner of Court and Landry Streets,
that barber Otis Welch gave Clyde Barrow his last haircut
& shave. Two days later Clyde was killed. Otis Welch is
the same barber seen in the foreground in the above photo.
