Waterville | This station was probably built by the Minnesota Central or the Wisconsin, Minnesota and Pacific, predecessor of the CGW. What is confusing is that both the M&StL and Rock Island operated this line in the 1800's for a while.The station was on the east side Reed Street South just south of Hoosac Street West. There was also a branch line that ran on the north side of Lake Tetonka ending at the Tetonka Summer Resort Hotel and racetrack. | |||||||
