The Green Bay and Western Railroad Depot is located in Whitehall, Wisconsin. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2006.[1]
History
The small brick depot was built in 1914 by the Green Bay and Western Railroad with separate waiting rooms for men and women.[2] It replaced an earlier wooden depot built in 1877 by the Green Bay and Lake Pepin Railroad.[3] Passenger train service to Whitehall ended on April 13, 1949, when the GB&W discontinued service between Green Bay and Winona.[4]
