Grand Canyon Depot

In 1901, the arrival of the railroad signaled a new era in Grand Canyon Village and provided the most comfortable means of transportation to the canyon for more than a quarter century. The log depot, finished in 1910, welcomed train passengers to a growing village. By 1924, a community development plan had been created for the village, and almost a century later that planned community formed the core of Grand Canyon Village, centering on the last operational log depot in the country. Today, the depot is carefully preserved and still welcomes passengers to the canyon.
