Milwaukee Road Depots features historic photographs that span from the smallest country stations to the grandest of the grand and everything in between.

Significant changes, rebuilding and replacement are addressed. Major railroads that operated within the state—Northern Pacific, Great Northern, Union Pacific and Milwaukee Road—are included in the book along with predecessors, successors and subsidiaries.
