Old Depot Museum, Railway history museum in Ottawa, United States.
The Old Depot Museum occupies a restored 1888 railroad station building with two floors containing exhibits about regional transportation and local life.
The Kansas City, Lawrence, and Southern Kansas Railway used this depot as their Division Headquarters until 1962, when it transferred to the Franklin County Historical Society.
The museum displays regional artifacts in detailed recreations of a traditional schoolroom, general store, dentist office, and Victorian parlor from Franklin County.
Located at 135 West Tecumseh Street, the museum opens Tuesday through Saturday from 10 AM to 4 PM, offering free admission to all visitors.
A model railroad layout, developed since 1965, presents miniature representations of Franklin County locations from the 1950s era.
