Supposedly, this is the original West Bend depot moved later to the north of today’s location as a freight house.
William Moyer: Frank J. Nobile On the Wisconsin Division, when a new brick depot was built at Crystal Lake, IL, the old wooden depot was moved about 100 feet north and used as a freight house.
