Description |
English: Maple Valley's first railroad station, built in the early 1890s, was replaced with the building shown in this photo in the early 1920s. This was one of only five village depots in the United States which was both a depot and a train dispatcher's office. Depot personnel dispatched Pacific Coast Coal Company trains from Black Diamond to Seattle and served as telegraph operators for Chicago, Milwaukee, and St. Paul (Milwaukee Road) trains from Tacoma. The building housed depot employees and their families upstairs. This 1920s photo shows the second Maple Valley railroad depot. The building was torn down in 1952, and a third depot was built on the site. The third depot was demolished in the 1980s.
