Old Milton train depot that is now the Senior Center

The first photo would have been taken before the Milton fire in July 1928 which burned a lot of the buildings in that area but left the water tower - as shown in the fire picture attached.
The last picture shows another train coming the other direction - you can see the same water tower and some of the buildings behind it. That picture shows that area after the 1928 fire - most of the buildings are gone but the water tower can be seen in the background. (The last picture is identified as: On June 7, 1949, Union Pacific #763 was photographed at Milton, Oregon.)
