The Osage City station, nominated as the Osage City Santa Fe Depot, is a historic railroad depot building at 508 Market Street in Osage City, Kansas. The depot was on the main line of the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway. The construction contract was let in September 1911 with the new depot opening in the Spring of 1912 at a cost of $13,000. The Santa Fe sold the depot to the Osage County Historical Society in 1986, which led to the creation of a local museum.[1]
