Andy Zukowski posted Wabash Railroad Depot in Versailles, Illinois. 1971 Jim Kelling shared Versailles Illinois (Wabash depot) Richard Fiedler shared David Kennedy: Is it stucco on the outside? Richard Fiedler: David Kennedy yes stucco. Wabash did quite a few stucco replacement depots in the 1920’s. Granite City had one too. Robert Fiedler: Looked the same way when I was there in 1976. Richard Fiedler shared |
Dennis DeBruler commented on Andy's post On a satellite image, it looks like some of the foundation walls might still exist. https://maps.app.goo.gl/fW6rbgNDDsqWrf94A 1938 aerial Richard Fiedler: Dennis DeBruler the depot survived but in deplorable shape as pictured up to around 1980. My brother Bob explored the area around that time and took an almost identical picture. |
Dennis DeBruler commented on Andy's post Evidently this town existed before the railroad came through the area because the town did not build around the depot. 1931 Meredosia Quad @ 62,500 |
This town was on the branch from Bluffs that went to Clayton and then forked and went to Keokuk and Quincy.
