Are you talking about the Diamond Mines at Murfreesboro? I don't know for a fact, but I doubt there is a shuttle available. I suspect renting a car would be the best option. Lodging - I'm not aware of any near the train station but there are several nice hotels/motels on Interstate 30 which is a couple miles from the station, and I don't know about taxi service. You may Google Texarkana Chamber of Commerce; I'm sure they have a Web Site. If you are going to the diamond mine be sure to wear "grubbies" because you
will get dirty. Have fun and find a bigun, but people watchig is more fun than digging. I have a cousin who spends so much time there and is frequently successful, people now call him "Diamond Jim".
Good luck
