The northwest and southwest walls of the 1871 M&N depot at Elkhart Lake, WI, on 30 May '20. Some references state that it was built in 1870, others say 1872; it was most likely built in 1871, when the rails were laid. It is currently home to Off the Rail, a café at 44 W. Gottfried St., Elkhart Lake, WI. Some references state that the depot was moved to this spot for use by the feed mill after the 1897 depot was completed. The northwest wall of the 1897 MILW depot can be seen in the background to the right (partially obscured by a tree). This portion of the former M&N, later MILW, main line, which runs along the other side of the buildings, is currently operated by the WSOR. |
