The opposite side of the marker we saw at entry 291. The legend reads:
University Station was built on this site in 1904, and served Epworth University — Oklahoma City’s first university — now O.C.U. A trolley car stop and trolley lines were laid out close to the 16 block campus to encourage development of surrounding areas. From Main Street, passengers rode up Broadway, then west on N.W. 13 street to this station. Later, the Classen Line was extended north to Belle Isle, the same line continuing north to stops in Britton, Edmond, and Guthrie.
