This building is the Chicago Northwestern Depot built in 1906. This was also the year the railroad was built into Midland. It was purchased by the Midland Pioneer Museum Association in 1974 and moved from its site along the railroad tracks about 600 feet to the southeast.
In homestead days it served the people well. Many hundreds of homesteaders, business men, hoboes and passengers passed through this depot. For 50 years mail came in and out of Midland as well as hundreds of tons of freight were dispatched by perhaps a score of depot agents.
The outside of the building has not been altered. It is as it was in 1906. The brick on the walk are the same brick that were laid on the railroad platform.
The building and contents is dedicated to the preservation of the life styles, tools of trade, the joys and hardships of our pioneers.
