View of the eastbound Milwaukee Road passenger train "The Sioux" making a station stop at Mitchell, South Dakota in 1928. "The Sioux", which ran between Chicago and Rapid City, made daily stops at Mitchell until September 1951.

Note only is the depot accurately shown on this map, it taught me about a roundhouse.
1957 Mitchell Quadrangle @ 1:24,000

The remnants of the roundhouse still exist. The depiction of it on the topo map is quite accurate.
