Is that a dead deer arranged on the bench below the window?

I've wondered abut that.  Either the track crew is having venison for dinner, or that is the strangest burro that I've ever seen!

Another photo from the Supplement . . . shows the little depot during late DL&G / early C&S days:




Nestled inside the wye, the depot has had a mud room added to the front, and most windows have been boarded up as protection against the winter snows. (A little snow remains along the foundation to the left). Fortunately, women's clothing became more flattering as the new century progressed.

The little depot survived at least until the 1918 valuation survey, perhaps all the way to abandonment.
