Future plans include utilizing this facility as a working Depot for Jasper's own train which will take tourists to several sights in Southern Indiana including the new French Lick Springs Resort & Casino. This was the first project of ROJAC, a not for profit community organization developed to build economic development through tourism. The preservation and celebration of Jasper's history is their main goal. The Depot has beautiful hardwood floors and is adorned with period items. It was built by Jasper Lumber and is approximately 85% of the original Depot's size. It is a replication of the original Depot at Newton & 2nd Street which was built in 1908 and torn down in the late 60's. The Ticket Room in the Depot was replicated from an actual photograph, circa 1900. Several local residents contributed items to assist in the authentication of this room.
