This is the bar area in the depot: It was added much later and
will more than likely be removed.

This room was the kitchen of the restaurant: It will also be
restored to its original look. |

These are the original brick walls of the depot from the interior.
They have been painted over. And will need some kind of restoration
work done. |

When the depot was built, it was two buildings joined together with
a roofed pass-through. Snyder said the pass was wide enough for a
horse and wagon to go through it directly to the freight cars for
loading and unloading. |

Snyder said the walls to his left and right were added at some point
in time, closing off the pass-through. Those walls will be removed
so the station will once again be two buildings. |

The north building at the depot may be turned into the Amtrak
station and the Am-shack on the southwest corner of the property
will be torn down. |

This is the walk-way between the two cabooses on the north end of
the building. |

One caboose, Snyder said was used as an office area for the
restaurant.
