===Seligman Depot=== [[File:Seligman-Territorial Jail-1860-1.jpg |thumb|Territorial Jail (unauthentic)]] At the western end of the town, directly west of the Roadkill Cafe, is a western town facade labeled "Seligman Depot" It includes 5 storefronts: A Livery, a "Tonsorial Parlor" (dentist), a hotel, a gun shop, and a Wells Fargo bank. There are no actual businesses residing behind the storefronts. Between this "Depot" and the Roadkill Cafe is a log cabin with the word "JAIL" painted in white above the doorway; in front of the cabin is a painted metal sign which declares the cabin to be "1860 Arizona Territorial Jail". The sign further states: ''At one time, held such notorious outlaws like β Seligman Sam β Three Finger Jack β James Younger and many more in 1866 four indians escaped by tunneling from this small cell to the OK saloon. Four days later they were dead after a shootout with Marshal Carl "Curly" Bane''. Behind the "jail" is a corral that holds a buffalo for tourist viewing during the summer months. The "Seligman Depot" and the "1860 Arizona Territorial Jail" are not authentic historical buildings, but owned by the Roadkill Cafe owners and were built to attract tourists to the Cafe and the attached "OK Saloon". Note that [[Arizona Territory]] did not exist until 1863, and [[Seligman, AZ|Seligman]] was not established until 1886 (per the city sign at the edge of town). Marshal Carl "Curly" Bane, the Indian jail escape and the list of outlaws are also fictitious. There are no local or other documents claiming any authenticity to any of the property; visitors are simply left to believe what they wish of the park.
