You are correct Louis. The L&SE depots at Coon Valley and Chaseburg were of the same design. Milwaukee Road took over the Viroqua to Chaseburg portion of the L&SE in the 1930's, and used these depots for many years. The Chaseburg depot was closed in 1950, and torn down about 1962. I'm not sure when the Coon Valley depot was razed but it was gone when I searched for it in 1972.

All - Have attached a photo of the Cochrane, WI, station taken in 1910.

A bit of trivia, many of the stations on the long abandoned LaCrosse & Southeastern Railroad from Stoddard east to Viroqua, WI, were constructed to the same design.

This station would look good on most any rural layout. Best Regards - Louis

During the 1970's, a number of these depots still survived in Wisconsin along the river in the early BN years, including Cassville, Ferryville, Cochrane, Pepin, Bay City, Prescott and others, most used for m-o-w. Cochrane was the last one to be a train order office, with a semaphore, lasting into the late 1980's. The only surviving one in WI to my knowledge is Pepin, now located in a park along Highway 35 in that town.

CB&N depots are very distinctive and deserve scratch building.
Most have large overhang high hip roofs and would not be a big deal to build using evergreen drop siding and commercial window and door castings.
I think the old Laverne depot on the east end was built following CB&N plans and there are a couple of that style that survive.
