The Osage City station, located at 508 Market Street in Osage City, Kansas, is a Mission Revival depot built for the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway. Constructed with a stucco exterior following a contract let in September 1911, the station opened in spring 1912 at a cost of $13,000 and served as a key stop on the railway's main line. Passenger service ended between 1970 and May 1971, when Amtrak assumed most intercity rail operations; today Amtrak's Southwest Chief passes the depot without stopping. In 1986, the Santa Fe Railway sold the building to the Osage County Historical Society, which converted it into a local museum. The station was added to the National Register of Historic Places on May 11, 1989, and is also listed on the Register of Historic Kansas Places.
