From the 1930s onward, railroad traffic on the Rock Island declined as travelers and freight moved on highways rather than trains. The railroad gave the station to the City of Sayre in 1972 after ending its passenger service. In the late 1980s, the Shortgrass Country Museum occupied the building. The depot was added to the National Register of Historic Places on June 9, 2000. (en)
