U.S. railroad depot in South Dakota / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Midland Depot was built by the Chicago and North Western Railway (C&NW) in 1907 as part of an extension from Pierre to Rapid City. It is located on Main Street in Midland, South Dakota. The building is a two-story wooden depot, built to the C&NWs' plan number 4 design, of a standard combination depot with living rooms overhead. In 1939, the Midland Depot had a single daily departure in each direction, to Chicago or Rapid City via the Minnesota & Black Hills Express.[2] Passenger service ended October 24, 1960, with the discontinuance of the Dakota 400.[3] Today the depot houses the Pioneer Museum.[4]
