[milwaukee-electric] Re: Name of the Milwaukee Train Station During 1969

[Don Ross]

I thought they had kept the tower after the CNW station destroyed.  I 
have used the picture of the station as the front page on Don's 
Depot.  It was the last place I worked for the C&NW.  Actually I 
worked at the Chase Tower in 1957 but I met with the superintendent 
at the depot to end my rail employment.  A couple years later I went 
to REA which was really rail employment.  I had enough time so that I 
am now on Rail Retirement.
My first job in 1949 was the Milwaukee Road freight house on Fowler 
St which was a block south of the depot.  The building with the 
beautiful Teutonic tower was THE DEPOT.  I carried messages from the 
freight house to THE DEPOT.  I have a postcard showing Union Depot 
and others show as CM&StP Depot.
