Rupert attached are photos of the Elliott and Griswold depots. Sorry I do not have one for Stennett. The Elliott photo I find at the Grinnell IA library.

 

There are photos of Stennett at http://iagenweb.org/montgomery/twp/stennett/gallery1.htm

Subject: [CBQ] Red Oak to- Griswold Branch

 

For a Burlington Bulletin article, I’m researching the Red Oak to Griswold Branch which opened in 1891, with a single intermediate stop at Elliott. Later a stop was added at Stennett, between Red Oak and Elliott.

Hoping that someone can help with -
     Photos of Stennett, Elliott and Griswold depots (I’m aware of the ones of the last two named towns found in Bulletin 22).
     Track alignment chart for the branch
     When passenger service finished on the line – the latest date I’ve found was 1949

Thank you.
