Bcc:
I believe Ralston had a "Salt-box" as well, with an addition on one end. I found a couple of new books in a local hobby shop yesterday, Railroads of Nebraska and Railroads of Omaha (both paperbound). The Railroads of Omaha had a picture of the Ralston depot and now that I looked at teh salt-box image in the files area, it looks the same. I have some later pictures after it was painted white and the bay window had changed.

I agree with Dave. These salt-box style depots were in Powell, Frannie,
Lovell, Lodge Grass and many other towns in Wyoming and Nebraska. These are
the 'classic' Lines West depots with living quarters for the agent and his
family on the upper floor.
