The Katy Depot was constructed in 1898 and served the Missouri – Kansas – Texas Railroad Company (also known as the Katy Railroad) until 1957. The depot served as a water stop for steam engines of the era and was a key reason many settlers came to Texas. In 1979, the depot was moved to Katy City Park and has since been used as a railroad museum.

In this painting, G. Harvey encapsulates a bygone era when The Katy Depot was bustling with travelers anticipating the arrival of a train.
