TERMINAL DEPOT
WILL BE MODERN
IN ALL RESPECTS
Actual construction work will bo
commenced as soon as the grading is
complete on the terminal depot for
the U. S. railroad at Seward. This
structure will be the lirst steam heat
oil depot equipped with modern plumb
ing on the line, other depots built at
points north not having the advantage
of water and sewer systems.
The new structure will be of the
regulation type. 08 by 24 feet, one
story throughout. The building will
be centered at the southern edge of
the depot tract which is 1100 by 100
feet and will be surrounded by a six
foot gravel walk.
At the southern end of the depot
will be a 12-foot overhang allowing
for an outdoor waiting room. The!
main waiting room, also on the south !
end. will be 24 by .’10 feet with neces- j
>ary seats and conveniences and toilet
rooms. The ticket office, which is J
centered in the building, will he 20
by 20 feet with an exposure on the;
tracks, the trainmen’s hall being on
the north side. The entire north end
of the structure. 40 by 24. will be used
for baggage and freight, until such
time that the freight business in
creases to such an extent that a sep
arate freight depot is necessary.
There will he a basement under the
ticket office section to accommodate
the steam heating plant. The build
ing will be equipped with modern
plumbing throughout.
The exterior finish will he stained
shingles and there will be dormer win
dows over the center section to re-1
lieve the plainness of the roof. The
interior will be plastered throughout.

Determination of Chairman Pales to
I erect temporary wooden bridges over
j the Tanana owing to tin* high price
| of steel was foreseen by officials ol
I the purchasing department early this
| year when bids submitted on all steel
materials for railroad construction
commenced going skyward.
The type of permanent bridge to bo
erected over the Tanana will probably
be determined later. In this line it is
interesting to note that the Copper
River & Northwestern railroad has
found it economical not to erect a per
manent steel bridge over the Copper
river at Ohitina, although the trat he
over that stream in Copper ore now
amount to 84,000,000 per month. The
cost of building a temporary structure
on piling each year after tin* old one
is taken out by the ice is far less than
the interest on the sum necessary to
build a permanent steel structure and
the closing of the line for two or three
weeks each spring causes little incon
venience.
