Comments/Directions:
Railroad museum housed in former Chicago Indianapolis & Louisville Railroad (MONON). The Linden Depot is the last surviving junction depot in Indiana. It was built in 1909 to serve the Nickel Plate Railroad which ran east and west from Toledo, OH to St. Louis, MO, and the Monon Railroad (formerly the CI&L Railroad) which ran north and south from Chicago, IL to Louisville, KY. The Depot closed in 1973, and re-opened as a Museum on April 13, 1993. Model railroad layouts operating, large supply of HO & N scale engines and cars for sale. 2 cabooses to walk through, a wooden MONON & bay window NKP.
