The station at Pesotum has had a recent paint job, and a roof installed.
There was no one around to talk to about the station. I looked into the windows and could see items that looked as though work was going to be done on the inside. Whoever owns the station has kept it in decent repair. Maybe someone will fix it up and open it as a museum, or gift shop.
No information could be found on or around the building.
In the required information below, I will mark that it is closed to the public for now. In the future, hopefully someone will stop by and give an update on this depot.
