In early 1883, the Northern Pacific Railway began construction of repair and maintenance shops in Livingston, which generated jobs and continued growth in Livingston. At the end of the construction, the Northern Pacific Railway complex consisted of a machine shop, engine house, boiler house, blacksmith shop, 15 stall roundhouse with a 54-foot turntable, storerooms, and offices. The construction began in 1883 and was completed in 1900. In 1885, the depot was relocated to the north side of the tracks due to the wind and drifting snow. In 1888, fire destroyed the depot resulting in the construction of a two-story brick depot that was completed in 1889. After construction of the shops and depot, the railway company employed approximately 600 to 800 workers. The Livingston complex was located between the Northern Pacific Railway headquarters in Brainerd, Minnesota and its terminals in Portland, Oregon not only because of its central location but because it was east of the Rocky Mountains. It was considered the largest facility between the two cities. In the early 1900s, passenger cars and freight transportation of approximately 16 trains traveled through Livingston daily. This volume of railroad transportation led to a large number of workers employed in the repair and manufacturing shops in Livingston. The roundhouse was the principal maintenance facility of the NPRY that served as a repair facility in addition to a storage area for engines. This increased passenger rail traffic led to the construction of a larger depot. The new depot was constructed in 1902 on the south side of the tracks and consisted of three buildings connected by colonnades. The machine shops were considered the most valuable asset of the railroad company. The shops included the Engine Shop, Boiler Shop, and the Copper and Tin Shop. The Freight House, Yard Office and Section Department, and Signal Office operated in separate buildings. Operations continued to grow in the Livingston area with employment increasing to 1700 in 1935. Major shop expansions occurred in 1902, 1907 and in the 1940s. In 1907, a large shop addition was built along with a new Boiler Shop and

They were the last full diners built before the advent of Amtrak. They displaced the Pullman-Standard dining cars NP 450-455 to service on the Mainstreeter. The Budd diners operated between Chicago and Seattle until the end of BN service in 1971. Dining cars were cycled in and out of eastbound No. 26 at St. Paul Union Depot and were serviced at the nearby NP Commissary. Five of the six cars were purchased by Amtrak in 1971 and operated in the North Coast Hiawatha, and later in the "Heritage Fleet", particularly on the trains between Chicago and New York and Washington.
