Here's the Ferguson Whistle Stop!
Housed in a real whistle stop, all things here are train themed.
In train terminology, a whistle stop was a stop along a route that would only be used if someone requested the stop at that depot.
The Whistle Stop has many historical items on display.
Including a telegraph, used to send messages before the invention of telephones.
The railroad tracks outside of The Whistle Stop have carried passengers and cargo for over 100 years.
The Ferguson Whistle Stop is partially a museum dedicated to the history of the train depot and of Ferguson.
We wish all museums had such great food!
The old passenger area, now restaurant seating, is perfect for hosting special events.
The full lunch and dinner menu includes salads, soups, sandwiches, and specialty dishes.
All are created with the freshest ingredients and locally sourced whenever possible.
Dinner dishes have names like "The Pullman" or "The Veggie Clipper" for some train-themed flair.
The Ferguson Whistle Stop offers shakes, malts, concretes, and sundaes too.
Choosing which amazing dessert here can be hard with so many choices! You can't go wrong with any of these sundae options.... "The Midnight Rider" (chocolate shell and creme de menthe), "The Royal Rocket" (hot fudge, sugar cone bits, and marshmallow fluff), and "The King Coal" (Oreo and marshmallow fluff with chocolate custard). All of their desserts are created with their signature frozen custard.
