    Roff, OK depot. :)

    Old photograph after the depot was retired. Note the replacement metal Armco modular component depot on the left.

    Roff, OK depot.

    Here is a view of the Roff depot around 1940.

    My mom, shown here, took her first teaching job there and also met my dad who was working with the Frisco paint gang.

    He was a sign painter and very likely painted the depot sign.

    A fascinating photograph and story, Tom.

    The photograph reminds me of those personal Frisco glimpses one sees in the early Frisco Employee's Magazines.

    Thanks for sharing,
