The photo is dated as 8/6/1965. Is the date off?

You can find a 1950 era photo of the Yorkville depot at 
 http://www.rrpicturearchives.net/showPicture.aspx?id=788166

There is a long (1,025 page) pdf "News items from the Kendall County Record, 1870-1889" that includes many details of the construction and early operation of the Ottawa, Oswego & Fox River Valley RR (Geneva-Streator, via Oswego and. Yorkville) in https://littlewhiteschoolmuseum.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/1870-1889.pdf

The pcv came from the Little White School museum in Oswego. Roger Matile at the museum has written many historic articles dealing with local railroads in the Aurora-Beacon News. See https://littlewhiteschoolmuseum.org/
