  Want to see something cool, go to Main Street, then get on the North side of the buildings on Main street (essentially the back of the buildings) and you'll find a forgotten street called Front Street... which actually was the FRONT side of downtown Mesquite back in the old days. You'll also notice the railroad tracks run parallel to Front Street, and you'll have to look to find the concrete block "junk" that was the old train depot landing. Congratulations, you just stumbled on the old West. Theer's a historical marker for a train robberyt right in front of the Hardware Store on Main street. The hardware store also has a "Light Crust Doughboys" museum inside of it.
