CB&Q Depot


I checked, Amtrak doesn't stop in this town.

The black rectangle in the yard was probably the location of this depot. We can see from the photo that it had tracks on both sides.

I think this building reused the depot's land. Note that it has an "agents bay window."

It looks like UP is still using it, Apr 2023. https://maps.app.goo.gl/NH2xrjxhv7V7BXtK9
