From a December 24th, 2023 posting by “Thomas” on Railway Preservation News Interchange: “In the 1990s and early 2000s, the Peruque depot sat abandoned near its original location and was heavily damaged by floods from the Mississippi River. An effort was made to save it and move it to nearby St. Peters for restoration. This effort appears to have failed for unknown reasons. The depot remained in Peruque until 2008 and then it disappeared from Google Earth imagery. I figured it had been demolished, but I was told it was actually saved and moved somewhere else. A photo I found on Facebook (which I regretfully cannot find now) shows the depot mid-restoration and was apparently taken around the time it disappeared from Peruque, which seems to confirm that it was indeed saved.
