| Despite its name, we can be assured that this establishment was unaffiliated with the Kansas City Southern Railway. It was located across South Third Street from the former KCS depot, and not too far from the railroad's yard. There had been a wooden structure here named the KCS Cafe; and after it burned down in the 1960's, it was replaced with this brick building. The cafe's location made it a convenient rest stop for rail travellers; but after passenger service ended in 1968, the business evolved into what we see here. It was subsequently renamed, and then closed. |
