Old railroad building

This ramshackle railroad structure lies directly across the road from the shack I sketched out yesterday. What was the purpose, I wonder? It doesn’t look like a depot at all – it strikes me as much more industrial. One set of tracks crosses the road to intersect with the main line, adjacent to this building. I’ve wandered a few feet into the trackside elevation, but it’s falling in on itself and definitely not safe to explore, much as my curiosity compels me to do so. Not far away, there are a couple of other dilapidated structures, one of which is the mouldering remains of a small covered bench, where I presume passengers must have once waited to board. Today, the line services freight; I’ve never once seen a passenger car. (Lamy Safari fountain pen, ink wash, Moleskin)
