I am completely bewildered as to what exactly is going on here. One of the references is a site claiming to be a directory of places in Madison County, but Castor Station isn't mentioned there. That page appears to be a small section of a longer listing by the Missouri State Historical Society, but even that larger directory doesn't mention a Castor Station. The 1959 Hidgon topo is also cited, but it's not on there. It apparently should be at the junction of the Castor River and Cape Creek, near Spring Valley Church, but it's not there. In fact, the 1910, 1959, 200, 2015, and 2017 topos do not include any marking of "Castor Station": Only two buildings and a survey boundary monument. It is on the 2011 topo, with nothing marked there, but disappears again by 2015. Google maps takes me to a house in the middle of the woods. Appears on the [ https://ngmdb.usgs.gov/ht-bin/tv_browse.pl?id=8b9980b1f629b679480c50ec9b9f65d9 1959 large-scale topo], but with no indication of anything there. I can find nothing meaningful on Google search or Google books. I don't know what it is, but the fact that this doesn't show up on pre-GNIS small-scale topos (just one that covers 2/3's of the Ozarks) and the fact that whatever this is, it isn't mentioned in most of the normal/claimed sources, indicates that "Castor Station" probably isn't notable. Surprisingly, this isn't on a railroad, or the name might make more sense. Hog Farm Bacon 19:36, 14 September 2020 (UTC)
