Interior Restoration
Interior Restoration:
The depot has a great history as the depot on Moosehead Lake. It served this section of track as not just a passenger depot but a freight depot, section house, maintenance shed, operator facility, agent office, and storage facility. From the plush designs of the Ladies Waiting Room to the spartan Freight Shed, the depot is completely unique as a railroad structure in the United States. Constructed at the same time as the rail line, it is an original railroad structure. Original structures are incredibly rare as most stations and railroad facilities have been replaced or upgraded at least once in their lifetime. The depot however, has not been altered greatly since it’s original construction. It is a true window to the past and no place is this more evident than the interiors of the structure.
The interior floorplan is mostly open with some great “nooks and crannys”. Repurposed as a community center it will be ideal for all types of gathering and meetings.
