#Bozeman
Text
I've been trying to showcase Motel Revivals in between my regular posts. Today's non-dead feature is the Sapphire Motel of Bozeman, Montana.
Before it was the Sapphire, it began as the Glen Motel in the 1940s, became the Travelier Motel in the 1950s, the Stardust Motel in 1970s and the Royal 7 Motel in the 1980s.
The motel operated as the Royal 7 for the next 40 years, seeing very few changes. By the year 2021, the property had become outdated and was in desperate need of restoration. The lack of upkeep created a unique opportunity in that much of the motel was still original.
When brothers Shiloh and Jake became the new owners, they invested significant time and resources to bring the motel back to its original character. The rooms and lobby showcase mid-century modern furniture, the original neon sign has been restored and the vibe is definitely that of a 1950s motor inn. By the time Shiloh and Jake took over, the motel had been in their family since 1972! Pictured are before and after photos of the sign, lobby and rooms.

Bozeman, Montana
I was shocked today to see an image of the Bozeman passenger station falling into disrepair. I have two images of the station in better times—when Amtrak's North Coast Hiawatha still ran.
In my shots here we first see an eastbound Burlington Norther freight on the former Northern Pacific line, and then the Amtrak passenger trains arrives. I would ride the NCH between Bozeman and Milwaukee.
[Being a locomotive geek, I see that the BN GP9 on point is a former Northern Pacific engine, running on home rails, built in 1957. The power for the passenger train is a relatively new F40PH built in October of 1977, just shy of two years old.]
It should be said that this Amtrak train was named in honor of earlier passenger trains on both the Milwaukee Road and the Northern Pacific—as its long journey would use the tracks of those two railroads. The train operated for Amtrak between 1971 and 1979.
Again, sorry to see the station falling into disrepair. I hope it is saved and that passenger trains return to the line.
Two images by Richard Koenig—made in August of 1979.

still working on obtaining my very own 4x5, but in the meantime enjoy this work in progress! I don't have the original scans anymore, but i found a picture of my photoshop screen while I worked on it back in the day. As in love now as I was then.
Shot on 4x5 large format view camera, Ilford 100 film, scanned.
I went to school for photography at the lovely Montana State University (Go Cats!) and this lovely multi-frame panorama was shot nestled up in the Bridger Mountains overlooking Bozeman, MT.
I just love the way 4x5 film *glows* and leaps off the page. mesmerizing.
