Livingston Depot Center
About This Museum
People don't just stumble upon the Livingston Depot Center; they come to stand where the West was truly won, on the very platform that once welcomed legends like Calamity Jane and Teddy Roosevelt. It’s a place where you can almost hear the hiss of steam and the clamor of passengers starting their great adventure into Yellowstone. Inside, the stories unfold through everything from vintage menus to a full-scale model of a Northern Pacific locomotive. You leave with a tangible sense of how this single building, more than any other, built the town and shaped the entire region.
Collection Highlights
The centerpiece is a magnificent, detailed model of a Northern Pacific steam locomotive that captures the sheer power of these machines. Other exhibits delve into the lives of railway workers and passengers, featuring personal artifacts and even classic railroad china used in dining cars.
Visitor Information
You'll find it right in the heart of downtown Livingston at 200 West Park Street—it's hard to miss that iconic red 'Northern Pacific' sign. Check their website for seasonal hours, as they can vary.
Architecture & Building
The building itself is the star exhibit: a beautifully restored 1902 railway depot with classic red brickwork, large overhanging eaves, and that timeless, welcoming station-house feel.
