Rail-fan Pictures of Winthrop Depot

The Winthrop Station opened in 1849 and once had a passenger depot, a freight depot, a team track with ramp, three coal bins, and a baggage room that was actually a separate building. A grain mill, a dairy, and a condensed milk factory also took service in town. Unfortunately only the baggage room survives, this is what I have pictures of.
