I have attached a street view image of the Cedar Bluffs rail yard from april of 2918. The old wood cribbed elevator is no longer there. Plus more of the town buildings are gone.

Louis:

I have attached 3 scans. The hopper car to the left of the silo in the long range shot is just barely in the left of the close up of the grain company.

I have also included a photo from the net of the grain company from before '87 and a plat of Cedar Bluffs showing the rail yard.

If they don't come thru I will resend with only one attached at a time.

I have not found a photo of the full building. I am not sure I took one back then. I was visiting what was left of Cedar Bluffs and the Miner farm. I'll keep digging in case I have a better shot.

I do have a picture of what the rail yard looked like in '87 taken from the east end looking west. There was not much there. You can see the old wood cribbed elevator and a bunch of silo's that were part of the grain and fertilizer company that was about all that was left of Cedar Bluffs. I can scan that photo if anyone wants a copy.

Kirby,

It dousn’t have the bay window but it does look similar to the 20’x40’ “saltbox used on lines west.

I have 2 photos from 1987 that are supposed to be the original Q depot at Cedar Bluffs, KS on the old St. Francis Branch. After the Depot closed the building was moved to the George Minor farm. These photos were taken at the farm.

Can any of you tell me if this building looks like it might have been a Q Depot?
