Re: SVRy Whitney depot

Here are a few shots that have the depot at least in the background. The first photo is prior to the mid1930's as the water tower is near the depot. The 2nd shot from Jeff Chittick's collection is dated Sep. 1946. Notice that the depot has an addition on what I assume is the freight end. Jeff posted this photo here on NG. Diss. years back as I recall, so am taking the liberty of reposting. The 3rd shot just gets a small bit of the depot. IIRC the lady who gave me this photo dated it to 1912. The final two with the depot in the back ground were obviously taken to show engine 11. They are from the SVRR Archives Grigsby-Hayse Collection. I believe Jim told me that Eng. 11 had been set up there on an isolated track and used as a steam source for a steam pump to fill the water tower. Notice that the photos were after it was out of service and the new large water tower can be seen in the distance to the east.
