This station is nicely restored and used as a museum but unfortunately wasn't open when we visited.

"I received the following comments from Mark Davidson; The Farber depot is a former Chicago & Alton (C&A) / Gulf Mobile & Ohio(GM&O) / Illinois Central Gulf (ICG) station. The line changed hands through mergers before the depot was moved off the property. American Model Builders, the laser cut kit manufacturer in St. Louis, makes a HO scale kit of this station" missouridepots.com
