Not sure about the narrow gauge, Bob, but the standard gauge C&S cars that ran through to Ft. Worth and on to Houston on the Burlington-Rock Island likely were segregated in the 1920s.  

Many Texas roads had depots with two waiting rooms for segregation.  For example, the Katy had two sets of standard plans for Oklahoma / Texas depots as compared to depots north of Oklahoma.  Same basic plans, the southern depots modified with extra waiting areas.
