I remember when this was built. I spent a lot of time there with my daddy, Ralph Chandler. He was a switchman on the GM&O. Before the new yard office they had a small, wooden shanty downtown next to the tracks. That's where their lockers were. Loved to go there and play as well. Lot's of great memories of both places.

Thanks Beth, for your comment. About what year was it built? The building is still there & is owned by the Kansas City Southern Railway. I remember the old depot uptown where the GM&O crossed the Frisco. Sure was some good memories.
