A long shot of the depot facing north. We will have 3 cross arms on the next pole north and possibly the pole closest to the foreground. I have not seen many old photos of depots with trolley wire on the communication poles but there are a few I have found, one was in Iowa. The depot folks would love to have a real train there, but the trolley is as close as they will ever get! I do think a steam locomotive would look great near the depot. Look for a couple of these same photos in the Trains and Railroads album.
