ex NYC Depot Shirley IN Aug 30 1991
Author: krm152

This photo was taken on Aug 30, 1991. By this date all trackage in Shirley had been abandoned. However, this depot had once been strategically located at the crossing of NYC’s Anderson - North Vernon Line with their Indianapolis - Richmond Line. The depot faced the latter.  In case you are wondering, the sign over the door reads “MUSEUM”. Bing and Google satellite images indicate the depot still exists in sound condition.

I have a slide of it I took in the early 80s when the track was still in and the paint was pealing off the structure.

The depot look like it had just been refurbished when I made this photo.  Paint does not look in good shape in Google photo.
