Museum
Today the depot building is operated as a railroad museum. Located in a mixed commercial district, the area that was once the station's stockyard is now a lumber company, but the "Commercial Hotel", an 1889 hotel that served railroad patrons, across the street still stands. The depot was restored by the Elizabeth Historical Society and is meant to become an important repository of information about the Chicago Great Western Railroad.
