This former train station is now home to the Linn County Historical Museum.


Circa 1900

"Originally the Depot was located at the northwest end of town, next to the railroad tracks.... In the 1960s the Southern Pacific donated the Depot building to the Linn County Historical Society which turned it over to the City of Brownsville.... The City later sold it to Ray Bubak, an antique dealer who dismantled and later reassembled the building on its present site."
