At the Buena Vista library, I located the following story about the depot building at Silver Plume in 1884.
The Salida Weekly Mail newspaper, Saturday, April 12, 1884, page 1, column 5
"Silver Plum's depot has been shipped from Denver. It is all ready to be put together."
Does anyone know how many other depots were constructed this way (constructed like a kit and shipped to the site).
