1898 ST. LOUIS COUNTY RAILROAD MAP

Notes About Existing Stations... Duluth (Union Station) - See the Duluth Depot site for more information. The train sheds were removed in 1924. Endion (DM&IR) - Added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1975. Moved from its former location at South Street & 15th Ave East in 1985 due to the extension of Interstate 35. Fond Du Lac (LS&M) - According to a Duluth Herald article by Jack D. Shipley (published Jan. 6, 1981), this Lake Superior & Mississippi RR station was built in 1870 and was moved to 13308 West Third Street. It served as a duplex and then became a restaurant around 1929. It served as The Olde Depot Inn restaurant until 1985 and is now a house. Taft (DW&P) - I could not confirm that this was the station. Building is up on blocks having been moved to this lot from elsewhere. It is not far from where the Taft station would have been, however it does not match the two older photos of Taft stations listed below in the "Stations Of The Past" table so it is most likely not from here. Does anyone know for sure if this was a station or something else? If it was station, where is it from? --Dan West Twig (DW&P) - I am not convinced that this was a station as it looks like a modern building. It appears to be used as some sort of chemical loading facility. Does anyone know for sure if this was a station? --Dan West Virginia (DW&P) - The first building to occupy this site library that was built in 1905. The city built a new library in 1913 and sold the building to the railroad. The CN railroad moved the library building built this Duluth, Winnipeg, and Pacific Railway station. The depot was used by the railroad until the late 1950's when it was converted to a bank. Wilpen (DM&IR) - Station moved from Wilpen to Chisholm. Now labeled "Glen" depot.
