safe_image for CB&Q depot & United Electric switcher. (3:03 video) This locomotive is located next to the Canton CB&Q depot. This is a Whitcomb built one which was built in mid to late 1930's. It worked for United Electric ( Buckheart) Coal mine south of Canton. It was donated to the city in 1997-98 and has been sitting here since. |
The cartographer for this map included the depot as one of the significant buildings in a "red area." That is rather unusual. It is the long rectangle just west of the track and about 3.5 blocks east of Jones Park.
