Post Office in Cisco - a photo on Flickriver

            Cisco, ghost town, in eastern Utah, below I-70.
Total population of 4 with some chickens, electricity is on, no running water.  Mail service is continued for a Zip Code, 84515.

The town started in the 1880s as a saloon and water-refilling station for the Denver and Rio Grande Western Railroad (now Union Pacific).  Work crews and, later, travelers came through for stores, hotels and restaurants. 
  
Attained a maximum population of over 200, until a decline began, firstly after the replacement of steam trains by diesel engines in the 1950s, and then when the town was bypassed by Interstate 70 in the 1970s.
