Dimensions of McIntosh, FL Depot

greenspun.com : LUSENET : ACL and SAL Railroads Historical Society : One Thread

I am searching for overall the dimensions of the McIntosh, FL. (ex-ACL) depot for a scratch building project. Specifically, I am looking for the length of exterior walls, height of windows sills off the ground, freight platform height and roof pitch. I have photos of the station, and will 'reverse engineer' the remaining dimensions from any dimensions provided. Thank you.

Scott, you might contact the City of McIntosh, as they own the old ACL Depot. I live in Ocala which is about 20 miles south of Mc Intosh, and our local model railroad cub set up our modules for MC INTOSH 1990 DAYS a few times. I have a picute of the depot made in the 1960's, but I do not know the dimensions you have requested. One of our members modeled the ACL Depot in Burnetts Lake, using the standard dimensions of the doors from an old photo. Good luck, Allen Wiener, Ocala, FL
