The station was originally built by the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy Railroad, and has been listed as Burlington Depot by the National Register of Historic Places since November 26, 2008. It became a contributing property in the Historic Railroad District in 2011. HistoryThe Burlington and Missouri River Railroad (B&M) reached Ottumwa from Burlington, Iowa in 1859, and the city remained the western terminus for the line until after the American Civil War. In the summer of 1865 work began to extend the line west of Ottumwa and it reached the Missouri River four years later. The Chicago, Burlington and Quincy Railroad (CB&Q) invested heavily in the project and took over the B&M in 1875. The CB&Q built a combination passenger and freight depot in Ottumwa in 1889. Its design was attributed to the Chicago architectural firm of Burnham and Root, who designed all of their larger depots.[3] Ottumwa was the division point for the line and their functions were housed in the second floor of the depot. The CB&Q was one of five railroads that served the city, and they shared their depot with the Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific Railroad. Technically, this was called Union Depot, but locals and railroaders always referred to the facility as the "Burlington Depot."[3] After World War II Ottumwa experienced a building boom, and the CB&Q decided to replace their depot with a modern facility. The Chicago architectural firm of Holabird, Root & Burgee designed the new depot as they had the new depot in Burlington, Iowa in 1943. That depot was the standard used to design other CB&Q depots after the war with Ottumwa being one of them.[3] The new Ottumwa depot was completed in 1951 by Benson Construction Company using the limestone foundation of the old depot and its exterior walls. None of the old depot is visible today, however. During construction, the railroad utilized two passenger cars as their ticket office and waiting room. Ballingall Park in front of the depot was completed at the same time. The present depot is a two-story structure designed in a simple Modernist style. The rectangular building features a flat roof, broad eaves, banded windows, and an exterior clad with ashlar Lannon limestone. Local transit connectionsThe Ottumwa Transit Authority East-West Route stops near the station. However, under the current California Zephyr schedule, Emeryville-bound trains arrive almost an hour after the system ends its daily operations.
