The Depot at Orleans
I am not sure what the source or date of this article is. If anyone knows please let me know as I would like to include credits.
The Station closed the year that I was born, 1934.
My father, in partnership with my uncle, Doug Wager, bought
the building.
Portions of it were used to put a three room addition on the Cook
family home
on
the other side of Flint Creek. One outstanding feature that still
exists is the
slate roof.
The Depot was located just south of the water tower.

This house belonged to the Green family. It was across the tracks
from the Depot.
You can see the old lower bridge in the
background. I watched the house burn
from our house across the creek when I was very young.
