I bought the depot in my hometown when the RI went bankrupt for the last
time in the 1970s. We roofed the building in the 1980s and have just
recently found the time to continue the preservation and restoration
within my means. I would be interested in hearing others' stories.
     I'm attached a photo of the building.
