The Katy Depot is a train depot constructed in Greenville, Texas, in 1896. It was operated by the Missouri, Kansas and Texas Railway Company. It was registered in the United States National Register of Historic Places on January 25, 1997.

The building foundation is made of limestone, and its walls are built of red brick with cut sandstone wainscoting.

The train depot is also home to the Greenville Railroad Museum.

President Harry Truman stopped at the station in 1948 during his “whistle stop” campaign tour.
