Verona, WI: Lost/C&NW Depot

(Satellite, the depot has been replaced by a trailhead facility)

Bob Wundrock posted two photos with the comment: "A couple shots of the Verona depot.  The first is a shot from 1880 courtesy of the Verona Press. The second is the depot shot in the early 1950s by Don Herling."
Peter Johnson shared
Hard to believe this is that Verona once looked like! The C&NW and the trains left Verona years ago and the railroad grade is now used for the Military Ridge Trail.
Alex Sansone: The second shot of the roof is extremely helpful to modelers

A similar view from Google Maps street view in 2019.

There was a lot of gravel on the south side of town.

I could not find any grain elevators.
