Ford Yard office |
| Description: |
Here's the modest place the Milwaukee Road built for the Ford Yard office. Not sure how far back this structure goes, though. May not have been the first built for the yard. |

Weathered Station |
| Description: |
All is quiet by the former joint Milwaukee Road/Rock Island depot as the "Defeat of Jesse James" days rocks on nearby. |

| Description: |
Happy to report, as the well-kept rails show, trains still parade past this grand structure built by the Milwaukee Road. |

Weathered But Still Standing |
| Description: |
Except for the obvious modern sliding door, the old Milwaukee Road freight house next to the depot still looks like it did in the days of steam. Note the red brick pavers in the foreground, another blast from the past. |

Austin Milwaukee Road Depot, Parking Lot Side |
| Description: |
This is the former Milwaukee Road depot in Austin. It is now divided up between a business, the local DMV, and a charity. Nice how the sign saying "The Milwaukee Road" was retained. |

This old depot would make for a fine train excursion departure/arrival point. |

All Quiet Twenty Years Later |
| Description: |
I first discovered Faribault's ex-Milwaukee Road depot during the summer of 1995. Back then a company loaded gondolas with recyclables (?) here. Sadly, that business did not last into the first decades of the 21st Century, resulting in the mothballed tracks you see now. |

Still Here After All These Years |
| Description: |
When the Milwaukee Road abandoned its branch line through Harmony, MN, in 1977, the town's depot not only survived but also remained in its original location by the right-of-way through town! Here the building basks beneath unseasonably mild late November skies on the Saturday after Thanksgiving, 2021. |

Nice Touch |
| Description: |
Though probably a replication, the "Harmony" sign above the baggage room door on the depot's southwest side is a nice touch. |
