The Interurban Depot was built at the beginning of the 20th century. Circa 1902 the operation was electrified, starting with 3 motor cars. By 1914 it fulfilled Moravia's dream of being the best small-town center of transportation, with a busy two-hour schedule taking riders to many different locations and enabling passengers to reach their destination and return the same day. By 1923, passenger rail traffic began an irreversible decline after peak ridership of 400,000 in 1918. In the early 1950's, the line saw a resurgence in rail traffic, but by 1967 the final two interurban rail cars had been removed and power was cut, ending electric rail operations here.
