SDDI is situated in the Amtrak Depot at 105 West Pacific simply off of Ohio Avenue. Sedalia was established by George R. Smith who bought 503 sections of land of land and recorded the main plat of the new town, named Sedville in 1857. He started selling packages as right on time as 1858, for up to $75 per parcel. Until October 16, 1860, when it was re-platted as "Sedalia", the town had existed distinctly on paper. However, in 1861, because of Smith's endeavors, Sedalia turned into the end of the Pacific Railroad and saw its first train travelers land in January. While Sedalia's development was hindered by the Civil War, as end of the railroad, it turned into a vital area and a government military post. In spite of the fact that it got away most Civil War clashes, Confederate soldiers shelled the delicately ensured town in October, 1864. Confederates overwhelmed the town, seized arms from the caught Union men, and rode away later that night. Post War organizations would in general extend in an east-west example along the railroad tracks, with development for the most part happening no more remote south than Main Street. Most organizations (food supplies, dry products, tackle shops, metal forgers, drugstores, inns, tool shops, and general stores) situated in the two square territory along Main Street from Ohio Street west to Kentucky Avenue. The structures themselves were square shaped edge structures, and were profoundly defenseless to fire.

In 1867, Ohio Avenue was cleared and in 1868, gas works were built to give lighting. That year, a sum of $286,000 was spent to construct block business houses, with block business structures rapidly dwarfing those of casing. A subsequent railroad arrived at town in 1869, the Tebo and Neosho Railroad, which later turned out to be a piece of the Missouri, Kansas and Texas Railroad (MKT). Sedalia filled in as the beginning stage for a considerable lot of the exchange courses to Texas and American Indian Territory and stayed an exchange focus even after the railways supplanted wagons. The town likewise filled in as the end for the first of the long dairy cattle drives from Texas. The f.
