The first project the BHC focused on was saving the last remaining depot on the Bayfield Peninsula. This is the Houghton Depot.
From 2018 through 2019, many volunteers worked at getting it ready to be moved from private property to its final location at Bayview Park which happened on Feb 24, 2020 and placed on a permanent foundation.
Once on its foundation, it will be completely restored and become a focal point for workshops and presentations.
The process of deconstruction and moving are shown in the photos.
This railroad model built by Paul Johnson, shows the depot (small building on the right) as it existed in 1913.
