Replacing two predecessors, the first of which was a boxcar, the two-story Gassaway Depot is a sturdy masonry structure with a pronounced taste of Richardsonian Romanesque flavor. The first story is constructed of locally quarried sandstone, rough-faced and laid in regular courses, while brick is used above. Each long facade has a projecting, gabled central pavilion. The trackside pavilion has a recessed panel over the entrance with painted letters: “To Elkins 82 8/10 mi. Gassaway To Chas. 91 7/10 mi.” Above, bright red tiles cover the hipped and gabled roof. After its use as a depot ceased, the building became, for a while, a maintenance shop. It is currently vacant.
