The Wahoo Burlington Depot is a historic two-story building in Wahoo, Nebraska. It was built in 1886 for the Omaha & North Platte Railroad Company, and painted in red and green.[2] According to the National Register of Historic Places form, "it was leased to the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy Railroad in 1886 and later deeded to them in 1908. The CB&Q became the Burlington Northern Railroad in 1970. The depot closed in 1972 when a mobile agency was instituted and the tracks were abandoned three years later. Today, it is the only remaining depot of the three in Wahoo."[2] It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since May 9, 1985.[1]
