    Zrlma, MO depot.

    I apologize for the poor quality of this image but I do not know of any other photograph of any Zalma rail scenes.

    I know that the train blocks a great deal of the building but it is interesting to note that it is a two story structure. I have read that in some remote towns that the depot agent and family may have lived in the upper section.

    The Zalma branch dead ended just past the depot at the banks of the Castor River. There was one siding at Zalma and it was a left handed switch with the spur ending at the side of the depot.

    I will try to model this train using a Bachmann low boiler ten wheeler and lots of modifications.
