Altamont, KS This might have been the first Frisco depot in Altamont, KS. Photograph dated 1910. My personal collection.
Art, Nice photographs. It appears to me that they are the same building with just a simplified roof. Too bad there are no reports it would still exist. I took a Heart of the Heartlands excursion through there a couple of years ago.
