[RITSlist] Oskaloosa Depot Restaurant

[JEFF hERGERT]

Hello all,

Last spring after the Ottumwa train show, we planned to stop at Oskaloosa on the way home for lunch at the depot.  That Saturday,  it was closed.  We drove thru the drive and it looked like it hadn't been open for a while.  Their mail box was overflowing with junk mail and an outside awning seemed to be tattered.  IIRC, there was a for sale sign for a commercial property placed near the drive entrance, but I wasn't sure which property it was for.  The appearance of the restaurant made me think it was for that.

Does anyone know if it is still in business?  When we ate their once before a year or two ago, it seemed that it was already on it's second owner after the restoration.  It's kind of out of the way for a restaurant, or any retail business for people just passing by.  It would be a shame to see the building lost.

Jeff
