October issue of Cobblestones newsletter

In 1915, the Freight Depot was in the path of a track realignment and had to be moved–again.

The October issue of the Colfax Cobblestones newsletter was mailed today. All members of the Colfax Area Historical Society will receive a copy in the next few days.

This issue includes a five-page article by Roger Staab: “Colfax’s Much-Travled Freight Depot,” a history of the freight depot that is currently located on North Main Street in Colfax, California, across from downtown businesses. His article includes five historical photos from 1866, 1881, circa 1904, 1907, and 1915.

The entire issue can also be read online or downloaded as a PDF.

Please note that the October issue of the Colfax Cobblestones newsletter will be the final issue of 2019.
