Carona is an unincorporated community in Cherokee County, Kansas, United States.[1]

History

Carona was originally called Carbona, because the area was rich with coal[2] and coal is a carbon-based fuel.

A post office was opened in Carona in 1905, and remained in operation until it was discontinued in 1988.[3]

Area attractions

Carona is the home of the Heart of the Heartlands museum complex dedicated to preserving the history railroads had in the mining industry. The complex includes a railroad museum; a restored Missouri Pacific Depot from Carona; a restored Missouri Pacific Depot from Boston, Missouri; and, a collection of railroad locomotives and cars, including the cosmetically restored KCS Steam Locomotive #1023 that once was displayed at Schlanger Park in Pittsburg, Kansas.[4]
