Peter Moore posted three photos with the comment: "Milwaukee rd caboose in Marquette iowa on 10-7-23"

Michael Witte: The Depot in Marquette Iowa was actually moved from Blue River Wisconsin to become a museum and Welcome Center. Definitely worth the stop

The depot might be in its original location because there used to be tracks that far north. 1967 Prairie du Chien Quad @ 62,500 https://maps.app.goo.gl/ua5gqRinMDdnDYSk9

I wondered if the round parking lot of the Wetlands Centre was part of the old roundhouse. It looks like the parking lot covers up the foundation where some stalls had already been removed in this Nov 10, 1965, aerial. https://maps.app.goo.gl/V34CwnJS17TR5q8t7 (At first, I didn't think I had the correct aerial photo, then I realized that this is what the town looks like during a significant flood.)
