Paul Idaho Train Depot

Another old photo of Paul, Idaho.  To the left, center of the photo is the Paul Train Depot.  The depot was located about half way between Main Street and 1st West Street on the north side of West Railroad Street and south of the tracks.  This photo was very early on, probably before 1917 as the Amalgamated drainage ditch does not appear in to be running through the photo.  Also, the buggy in the front and no parked cars elsewhere provide some hint.

Immediately behind from this view and across the tracks is the Watson Farm Supply Building.

Looking east down Idaho Street you can see the back side of Merrill’s Food Market.  On the following photo, you can see the north side of that building on the right side of Main Street before the bricked Adams Building.

If you look out to the very far left of the photo with the depot, you can see the first school in Paul.  That school was located on James Ellis land.  I don’t know when that school was built or when it was replaced with a school virtually in the block behind where this photo was taken.
