The former CRIP depot at Grayson, MO was unused, and unloved for many
years but still intact until this week. The depot was demolished
sometime in the past 7 days. I pass by it each week and didn't know
destruction was imminent but on today's trip through Grayson the depot
site contained only some piled up dirt and debris from the demolition.
Grayson is about 40 miles north of Kansas City MO.
A photo of the depot taken 3 months ago (March 2001) is posted at:

and a page from the 1917 Railroad Atlas showing Grayson in southwest
Clinton County, Missouri is online at:

I have a number of depot photos from Northwest Missouri - if anyone
has interest in a particular depot email me and I may have a recent
photo.
