I found the following in the Ad-Express history section of February 5, 2014

Dated:  Feb 5, 1911

On this day, the new Burlington Railroad's new 32x90 foot depot on the 
Levee opened.  It received local acclaim with its slate roof and brick 
platforms extending around the building.  Against an interior backdrop 
of Tiffany brick and dark green "Burlington" woodwork, Mrs. D.C. Bradley 
served punch.  Flower girls handed out 250 carnations. An Orchestra 
played.  Members of the Retail Merchants Association greeted members of 
the public.

Was this a "Burlington" or "CB&Q RR" Orchestra?

The brick platforms still exist today.

The Tiffany brick on the inside was there last I knew.

  The windows have been changed by the VFW Post that presently own it.
