Osborn (also Osborn Townsite) is a populated place and ghost town located in Yellowstone County, Montana.

History

Osborn was established as a town with a train station in 1907 along the Huntley Project irrigation system and retained a post office for only six years, until its closure in 1914.{{citation needed|date=November 2013}}

In 1928, several blocks of land within the "Osborn Townsite" were withdrawn by the federal government and set aside for use by the Department of Agriculture as an agricultural field station.[4]

Today

The Huntley Project Museum of Irrigated Agriculture is located on {{convert|10.4|acre|ha|abbr=on}} of the townsite, where 18 homestead buildings from the early 1900s have been preserved.[5]

The Southern Agricultural Research Center is also located here,[6] as well as a small fairground where occasional gatherings can be set up.

The community has been well preserved as a museum showpiece. While none of the original businesses remain, many of the original residences are still standing and occupied.
