The depot was built in 1875 and has been beautifully restored. Once housing the C&EI and L&N railways, it was the lifeline of commerce and transportation for the county. Passenger service was discontinued in the late 1960s. The Princeton Train Depot is now home to the Gibson County Visitors Center and features a railway museum with a restored train caboose.

Evansville Western Railway locomotive 3837 leads a daily local north from Evansville, Indiana as it passes over the William Keck Bypass Road crossing at Mount Vernon, Indiana on March 11th, 2024.
According to Wikipedia: The Evansville Western Railway (reporting mark EVWR) is a Class II (as of 2022) regional railroad operating in the southern Illinois and Indiana region. It is one of three regional railroad subsidiaries owned and operated by P&L Transportation.
Founded in August 2005, the railroad commenced its first operations on January 1, 2006, when P&L Transportation, formerly Four Rivers Transportation, the parent company of both the Evansville Western and Paducah & Louisville railroads, leased 124.5 miles (200.4 km) of mainline track, ties and track equipment between CSX’s Howell Yard in Evansville, Indiana, and the end-of-track at Okawville, Illinois, from CSX Transportation.
This line was once part of the Louisville & Nashville’s former Saint Louis Subdivision route that previously terminated in the metro-area of East St. Louis, Illinois, before being embargoed and slightly shortened under CSX ownership during the fall of 1993. CSX Transportation retains title to the real estate comprising the right of way on which the railroad operates but has leased it to EVWR for an initial period of 20 years.

This locomotive 1235 (SW-1200), is used at the Port of Indiana at Mount Vernon, Indiana by Respondek for switching operations and I caught it at the Evansville Western yard on December 18th, 2023, where it is reportedly undergoing repairs. From what I can find online it used to belong to the Terminal Railroad Association of St. Louis (TRRA) #1235 and was acquired from them in 2008 by Respondek.
Update: I just found out that EVWR bought this switcher a couple of months ago from Respondek.
