It is not really a "depot" but rather it was a bridge operators cabin( a rather large one, I might add). Many bridge operators also controlled interlocking plants and handled train orders. In the picture, you can see a stairway down to the tracks, so perhaps in this case the bridge operator could come down and deliver train orders but more likely just worked the plant.

Can somebody explain this photo on e-bay ? Where did the depot come from on top of the bridge ? http://www.ebay.com/itm/Orig-Slide-1967-Burlington-Route-Zephyr-Train-River-Railroad-Bridge-Chicago-5-/251441742770?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3a8b1883b2
