View of the first Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad passenger depot at Alliance, Nebraska circa 1900. The station, built in 1889, was torn down and replaced by a new depot in 1912.
Mike Bartels: The old depot burned on Nov. 24, 1906. The new depot was built in 1907-08. |
The depot land is now a parking lot for a modern BNSF office building.

The rectangular elevator peaking out on the right side of Brian's photo is also interesting. |
