Good news and bad news. The station has been purchased and will serve as =
an Amtrak stop and offices. Unfortunately, it is being modified with =
significant changes to its appearance. We saw it in late June.

  This page tells everything about the Pere Marquette RR station here. =
Pictured are the 1929 station- one that shared the station with a train =
toy manufacturing company until 1991- and is now deteriorating (#1 most =
threatened railroad station in 1998); the cheesy open air bus shelter =
that Amtrak uses since the toy guys (Kalamazoo Toy Train Works) closed; =
a photo from the original wooden depot with horses and an early car =
waiting by a train: =
http://user.mc.net/~louisvw/depot/bang/bang.htm<http://user.mc.net/~louis=
vw/depot/bang/bang.htm>

  On this official page we see the current state of this 1926 depot but =
also the history (bought by the city from CSX Railroad 2001) of the =
railroad here.: =
http://uk.geocities.com/carolyn_carr2003/history.html<http://uk.geocities=
com/carolyn_carr2003/history.html>
  This is from the city's official page. The Adobe Acrobat file of the =
history of the Elevator is also interesting as other the other histories =
at the top.: =
http://ci.bangor.mi.us/default.htm<http://ci.bangor.mi.us/default.htm>
  The Elevator: =

  For sale the Pere Marquette depot is for sale and here is the real =
estate prospectus with many pictures of all angles inside and out even a =
floor plan. I hope they make it a provision it doesn't get demolished: =
http://ci.bangor.mi.us/Community/Announcements/railroad_depot.htm<http://=

  Pictures such as the extant scale in the Scale Room: =

%20Scale.jpg<http://ci.bangor.mi.us/Community/Announcements/imges/Depot%2=

  And you will see that even the old Amtrak waiting room was an add on =
to the original station.
