In small communities across Minnesota, train depots dotted the landscape.
They were more than places to catch a train. Depots became centers of commerce, gathering spots for local news and workplaces where men and women held jobs that quietly stitched communities together.
In Little Falls, that history still lingers inside the city’s railroad depot.

A free early screening of the documentary will be held at 5 p.m. Friday, Jan. 23, inside the Historic Little Falls Depot. Cadwell will introduce the film and host a brief question-and-answer session following the screening. Seating is limited, and reservations are encouraged.
