In the 1880s, the Nevada-Oregon Railway (N-C-C) line began operations north to Beckworth, California.  In 1884, the new owners, the Moran brothers, renamed the line the Nevada-California-Oregon Railway.  They extended the tracks to Lakeview, Oregon, making this line one of the largest narrow gauge railroads in the west.This railroad depot was built in 1910.  Architect Fredric DeLongchamps designed the building.  He incorporated several architectural styles in the station.  The entry porch is in the mission style; the roof eaves are from the Italianate style; and the arched windows and doorways follow the Romanesque Revival style.In 1917, the Western Pacific Railroad purchased the N.C.O. Line from Reno to Herlong, California and standard gauged it.  The depot continued to serve the traveling public until 1937.
