Elkader Depot project is preserving history with train attractions


The Milwaukee Road Historical Society provided blueprints so the replica Elkader Depot building will be as close to the original design as possible. A June opening is planned.

Larry and Lenny Lerch work on the Elkader Depot building. They hope the space will be loved by both casual visitors and those who love trains as much as the committee members do.

This electric train purchased by the Elkader Depot will be a key feature once it is up and running.

This original coal stove was the first piece put into the Elkader Depot.

This is an historic image of the Elkader Depot, which was torn down in 1974.

Five MFL MarMac wrestlers qualify for state tournament

Junior Holden Mathis was the 132-pound champion at the Feb. 11 Class 1A District 6 tournament in Monona. This marks his first trip to state.

A second-place finish at districts made senior Karter Decker a rare four-time state qualifier. This year, he did it at 145 pounds.

Taylor Herzmann’s conference title at 220 pounds a few weeks ago was the previous high point of his wrestling career. The senior said advancing to state certainly tops it.

Sophomore Quinn McGeough had to win a wrestle back to solidify second place and his spot in the state tournament. He sealed it with a fall against Wapsie Valley’s Brock Kleitsch.

In a surprise turn of events, coach Chet Bachman confirmed Tuesday that 113-pound sophomore Keith Anderson has also qualified due to an injury to the first-place qualifier from Starmont.
