Michael,

Thanks for the awesome Barringer photo of Galena junction.  It is the perfect counterpart for the photo in the Spoor book.  Just what I need to begin to move ahead.

Later,  Dave Sarther      Tucson, AZ

I've attached a view taken from the CGW album of the Barriger Archives at https://www.flickr.com/photos/barrigerlibrary/sets/

Hope this helps.

There is a great Lou Schmitz photo of the Galena Junction in Spoor V 2, p.79.  I am searching for photos and some additional knowledge of this depot.  Was there a baggage room at the end opposite of the Schmitz photo vantage point, behind the operators window?  What year was the depot razed?  Did it last past the merger?  Does anyone have a plan or drawing of this depot?  There was a fan trip over that section of the CB&Q on May 20, 1961 behind O-1A #4690.  Maybe someone on that trip may have a recollection of the depot or better yet a few photos of other elevations of the depot.  I'd like to build a model if I can collect enough data to do a reasonable scale representation.

Thanks,  Dave Sarther   Tucson, AZ
