El Dorado Missouri Pacific Depot

The El Dorado Missouri Pacific Depot is a former passenger train station in El Dorado, Kansas, United States. It is a one-story, red-brick structure with a red-tile roof and wide, overhanging eaves designed by E. M. Tucker, Chief Engineer of the Missouri Pacific, in the Mission architectural style.

History

Constructed in 1918, the depot served the Missouri Pacific Railroad, on a freight-passenger line that ran east from Wichita to El Dorado then on to Eureka Yates Center, Durand, Iola, Moran, Bronson, and Ft. Scott.

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1994.
