Elaine Campbell stands at the memorial to Shep, a ranch dog who waited nearly six years at the Fort Benton train depot for his deceased master to return. Campbell recalled riding on the train with her family in the early 1940's and hearing the conductor tell the story of Shep. The conductor then pointed out the dog at the station. Shep was killed by a train in 1942.
