About Chicago & Eastern Illinois Railroad Historical Society
The Chicago & Eastern Illinois Railroad Historical Society operates a museum in two rooms of the historic Watseka Union Depot. The depot was relocated a short distance east of its original site and restored to its original appearance. The museum showcases railroad artifacts, photographs, and exhibits, and serves as a popular train‑watching spot. The venue’s interior spaces—including the main waiting room, ladies’ waiting room, former office and baggage areas—are available for private functions such as dinners, charity events, and wedding receptions.
