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, Kansas, to El Dorado then on to Eureka Yates Center, Durand, Iola, Moran, Bronson, and Ft. Scott.[2][better source needed]

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1994.[3]
