My sources in Wisconsin tell me that the Rio depot was demolished on 
Monday Dec 15.
Rio was a stop for Milwaukee Road local trains 55 and 58 prior to 
Amtrak. The Hiawathas
breezed by, as does Amtrak's Empire Builder. Rio is between Columbus and 
Portage on the CP ex-Milwaukee Road main line. See attached photo taken 
by Craig Bluschke in 1973.
