Missing Building

Carl W. noted that the section crew building was razed.
It had several uses over its lifetime, and was a roundhouse store room.
It was built long ago as the first boiler room for the roundhouse.

See Yahoo wisrail message 35480.and SooLineHistory message 20426 June 1, 2013
Nothing but a level parking let there now. Also, the old boxcars for storage are gone.

The building was north of the Stevens Point roundhouse.

Then I got curious and wondered how many pictures I had of it.
I found I never really took a picture just of this building. For what its worth.
It was always in the background of 'something more important'.
But I see I have a view of every side but the north. (See a link below for a picture of that from Kim K)

This page shows every digital picture I have of it.
All these pictures were not taken close up and not on purpose of the building.
I cropped these pictures from the original full size files, there's nothing left to sharpen or make larger or do anything with.

This view was in 2010.

2004, west end in the sunlight. This door is modern, probably with a steel beam header. All the rest have brick arches.

2006, seen from the east.
To the right/northwest there's still a small brown spot of a Soo Line storage boxcar on the ground. Now gone in 2013.

2008. I can see a small garage-door size brown opening with a brick arch on the south side.
If you model it, notice the two cupolas that are on the west half only.
