Regarding Glendale Depot. Excerpt
this page online
The railroad was the lifeline of Glendale, the depot one of its most useful structures. From here 14 trains a day came and went, not only passengers and mail, but also groceries arrived by train regularly. The Station House itself was used by the village council for their meetings and by the school board for theirs and here residents came to vote. The original structure burned in 1879, and the present building was erected shortly thereafter on the same site and is still used and owned by the railroad, now the Chessie System.
