Gilbertville Depot

This photo is an interior shot of the Brandon Depot with sections of the ticket office still in place. The depot was built about one year after the Gilbertville Depot and they are almost identical. The depot is currently privately owned.

Busy day at the Waterloo Cedar Falls &Northern Headquarters/station in downtown Waterloo across from Lincoln Park. In addition to the passenger and freight business, the WCF&N ran buses as well.

This photo has been posted before but it's a great photo of a WCF & N Baseball Special in 1914. Waterloo & Cedar Rapids both had minor league baseball teams with the Central Association. The Waterloo Jays and the Cedar Rapids Bunnies quite possibly were playing a game in Cedar Rapids. Traveling by train in 1914 to see a baseball game in faraway Cedar Rapids would have been an exciting experience.

WCF&N's motorcar #141 on the Waverly line. 141 looks well used and probably carried mostly freight at this point, considering many of the windows have been covered.

Bob & the Cobs and a couple of their friends played at the Depot on Saturday, it was a great mix of music well played. Perfect way to kick off the season. The next event is the Bridges Ride on June 6th, details to come.
