About
What to Know
The MKT Depot Museum occupies the Missouri-Kansas-Texas depot built in 1898. Displays explain its role in Katy's passenger service, which continued until 1957, while the adjacent caboose and railroad park extend the visit outdoors. Admission is listed as free, with donations accepted. Check current museum access before traveling, especially if an older closure notice appears in search results. This is a historical depot visit, not a scheduled passenger-train departure or a guaranteed train ride.
