Railroad
Stations Part Four
One of the main branches of the KATY Railroad
followed the Missouri River from St. Charles to Boonville, Missouri where it
crosses the Mighty Missouri. The town of Marthasville,
is one of the long forgotten towns that because of the popularity of the KATY
Rails to Trails project, the town has had a rebirth. The town just finished
restoring it’s KATY Station and moved it next to the
Trailhead, alongside the trail rest stop.
As you can see, the original condition was not that
bad, the remodeling job done by this small city is quite impressive.
