Another Now and Then Fade at Platte Canyon
I found this video fading from Maddow, Shawnee in 1929, with a string of C&S boxcars in the center, to 2011, panning over to Platte Canyon High School on Youtube.
The same creator did another now and then video in Platte Canyon here.
From Mac Poor' D.S.P.&P. Maddox was an Ice harvesting location with a 48car siding at M.P.58.3, just upgrade was Shawnee(originally called Riceville) at M.P.60, Kinger's Platte Canon Memories lists at M.P.59.6, with a 2car single ended siding: in between was Slaght's/Altruria at M.P.58.9.

Thanks for the details, Chris! That really helps because I wasn't sure what the difference was between Shawnee and Maddox.
