Yeah, I'd love to see a photo of Barranca too!!!
From the valuation maps, the Barranca depot was similar in size to the Embudo depot:
- Barranca: 25' x 31' depot
- Embudo: 27' x 33' depot
It's *POSSIBLE* they were built to the same plan, since the rock cladding added to the exterior of the Embudo depot looks to be roughly a foot thick.
- Embudo without rock cladding:

- Embudo with rock cladding:

I don't know when the rock cladding was added but Henry Wallace (the rock gent) became Embudo station agent in 1912, and the valuation maps (from the CRRM) were corrected to December 31, 1927.
So MAYBE the Barraca depot looked like the Embudo depot in it's pre-rock days.
FWIW.
