Fort Steele was built to guard the railroad, especially the bridge over the Platte River. The original bridge was made of wood, and subject to fire from the steam locomotives. A home was built for the train tender with a view of the bridge.

| Next to the tender's home is another building, I assume for the railroad pump house. |
