Notes About Existing Stations...

Federal Dam (Soo Line) - This station was built in 1908 by the Soo Line Rail Road. The Soo Line Rail Road was shut down after World War II and the building was moved to an Indian Reservation with plans for renovation. The plans fell through and the depot was sold to a private individual from Boy River. The depot was moved again to Boy River, Minnesota with the idea of making a restaurant out of the building. Once again, the plans fell through. The building sat vacant until 1998 when it was moved to the Little Log House Pioneer Village in Dakota County.
