The Kansas City Southern Depot, now the Museum of West Louisiana, is a former railway station in Leesville, Louisiana. It was built by the Kansas City Southern Railway in 1916.[1] It served as a combination of passenger station, freight station, and crew change point.[2] The station was a busy shipping point during the Vernon Parish lumber boom in the early part of the 1900s. A local KCS train served the station into the 1960s.[3]
The building was donated to Vernon Parish on May 20, 1982.[4] The station was added to the National Register of Historic Places on October 25, 1984. It was converted into a museum.
