(rshsdepot) Saltillo, Pa. EBT depot to be razed?

["Alexander D. Mitchell IV" <LNER4472_@_bcpl.net>]

A report on the Chaski Railfan forum says, and I quote: 

"Per the [Friends of the East Broad Top]'s most recent newsletter, it has been announced that the Saltillo depot of the East Broad Top will be demolished in early 2005. The borough approached the railroad, and told them to either restore the building or demolish it. As with most of the US now, funding is not available, and we will loose this 123+ year old structure. Luckily, the FEBT fully documented the building through professional drawings, and retained examples of the siding, sashes and other pieces of the building so if train service ever does return to Robertsdale, an exact replica can be built in its place."
