Danbury, NE: Museum/CB&Q Depot

Original: (Satellite, according to the topo map below, it was north of the mainline and south of a house track.)
Current: (Satellite)
Grain Elevator: (Satellite)

Obviously, the depot has been moved because it is no longer near the tracks. The grain elevators in the background are by the tracks.

A major preservation effort in a town of 80 people. In far southwest Nebraska on the now-inactive branch to St. Francis, Kan.
Ben Thompson: used to be a Danbury sign near Grandville Av where this stood.

The tanks in the right foreground are another reminder that co-ops sell chemicals as well as store and ship grain.
