Does anyone on the group have any dimensional data on this depot?

I am thinking of scratch building one.

Carl,

Thanks for the information. It is very helpful.

I cannot quite make out some of the measurement information.

Do you have any information on how tall it was?

Thanks again.

I have another drawing, but my scanner is having issues.

It adds these details:

Foundation: Pile Head
Walls: 2" x 6"
Roof: Gable shingles; Pitch: 1:4
Heating: Stove
Floor: 7/8" x 3-1/4"
Finish: Inside: 7/8" x 3-1/4" M&B
Outside: 1" x 12" Board and batten, 7/8" x 5-1/4" drop siding
Ceiling Height: 12'-0"; Freight room: 11'-6"
Lighting: Oil Lamps
Sanitary Facilities: Outside toilets

Given the interior ceiling height and the roof's pitch, you will get close to the structure's height.
