LOU,
After experiencing pics of the others,that would be my choice also..There is no need to be sorry,,I believe,we all had fun looking and I for one saw Depots,that I never saw before. Thanks for the comback.
Cheers,
Frank
Gidday Lou, having made a somewhat facetious post before, I should try to make amends.
Further to Richs suggestion, and if plans are not forth coming from other sources, there are enough photos of the depot that I''d suggest you think about drawing your own plans from them. Certainly an interesting building, besides If your wife wishes to see it in the garden then what other choice do you have.

Here are a couple of links to the Strasburg Depot in PA.
You will probably need to contact them to begin your search.

Hey guys. Sorry for that mix up. That would be Strasburg PA.
Hi Bear,
I believe that depot,would challenge,,anyone's,scratch building abilities,,no matter the scale..
Anyway,,check out Rich's link,to the Strasburg IL town and check out their Latest News section,,,good for a few,,
,,Do you think..that can be compressed enough,to fit a 4x8 ??
Gidday Frank, might be a bit of a squeeze even in Z, besides would far exceed my scratch building abilities.
Cheers, the Bear.
zstripe Lou, Yes It would help to know where,,CO.,VA and PA. Frank

Frank, it could be closer to home than you think.
There is a Strasburg in Illinois, down in Shelby County.

Problem is, I cannot find a depot, and I'm not sure that they ever ran any track through there.
"JaBear" richhotrainMaybe he meant the depot in Strasburg France. Do you mean this one Rich??? http://c1038.r38.cf3.rackcdn.com/group5/building41811/media/ohru_980x734686_478a9.jpg http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/c/ce/Strasbourg_Railway_Station_inside.jpg Cheers, the Bear.

Rich, Thanks,
Now find out,who stole the CO. Depot,,,I wanted to see it..
The page has an unusual wide horizontal format. Scroll right. Ib opened it several times before I
figured it out.
I tried to sell my two cents worth, but no one would give me a plug nickel for it.
I don't have a leg to stand on.
zstripe Rich, Am I missing something??mine is the same as yours.. Cheers, Frank Edit; never mind, I see the extra 5 now,,,thanks,darn eyes,,,,that is a nice depot though,if that is the one he wants.

That link didn't work. Try this.
The Nov 1996 issue of Mainline Modeler magazine has an article titled "Strasburg Depot" that has drawings. I don't know if it is the right Strasburg. It is in Colorado.
My wife wants me to build a depot for the G scale in the back yard and she wants it to look like the one at Strasburg. Are there any plans for that station and if so where can I get them.
