Blanton is an unincorporated community[2] in Garfield County, Oklahoma, United States. It was a rail stop for two rail lines,[3] one of which used to transport grain until the mid-1990s.[4] It was named after Denver, Enid and Gulf Railroad (DE&G) executive W. B. Blanton.[5]

History

As early as 1909, Blanton was a rail stop for the St. Louis-San Francisco Railway.[3]

A second rail line existed at Blanton, running to Kiowa, Kansas. This line, originally built for the DE&G in 1904 and 1905[6] and later sold to the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe, was used to transport grain until the mid-1990s.[4] An entity called the K & E Railway Company (K&E) acquired the then-unused Blanton to Kiowa branch from the Santa Fe in 1996; but, finding no interest in area grain companies to reactivate the line rather than continuing truck shipments to Enid, the K&E applied for and was granted permission later in the year to abandon the line.[7]
