The Morgan Union Pacific Depot, at 98 N. Commercial St. in Morgan, Utah, was built in 1926.
It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2011.
It has also been known as the Morgan Union Pacific Railroad Depot and as Morgan Station.
It may have been designed by Gilbert Stanley Underwood. Includes photo.
It was used as a passenger depot until 1972. A freight portion of the depot was moved to a new location.
After Union Pacific's Ownership The Depot got transferred to Morgan County's ownership in 1982 after The Union Pacific Railroad found no use in the Depot.
It was used as Morgan's Planning & Zoning office for an unknown amount of years. Possibly from the early 1980's after transfer of ownership from Union Pacific to its "Abandonment" in the early 2000's.
Restoration The Restoration of the Depot starts in the early 2020's. It's restoration completed in early 2024, that's when The Morgan County Historical Society gained control of the station.
