Fan Of the Union Railroad Depot at Troy.


Fall Of the Union Railroad Depot At Troy
At half past o'clock on the morning Of
Dec. SOth, the north half of the great Troy
Union Railroad Depot fell suddenly with a
tremendous crash. The roof was an iron one.
The building 400 feet long, and the roof q
span of $50 feet. The spring of the arch 80
feet. Distance from floor to top of arch CO
feet. Il was one of HoWe's Patent Truss
Roofs, supported by twenty trusses nine Of
WEIGH were broken. The trusses were
strengthened and supported by lateral iron
girders, these 'girders sweeping clear across
the lower part Of the roof, forming continu-
Gus sketch of iron of over $50 feet. These
girders, contracted under the intense cold,
snapped with the weight of snow on the roof.
Last winter the girderJ were loOsened by
screW-nuts at the end, when the weather was
cold. The Troy Arena says
This railroad depot is one Of the largest in
the world, there being none largeron this con-
tinent, and being only exceeded in size by one
in Russia. The Rochester and Buffalo De-
pots are built upon q similar plan. The en-
tire north wall Of the end Of the depot is level
with the ground; the great iron pillars, the
immense number Of brick, and the materials
Of the roof lying In confused mass. On the
east the whole Of the north part Of the roof
has fallen in completely up to the central
tower. Some Of the east walls Of the offices
are broken in. There was, fortunately, moth
ing under the falling roof. A family living
in the tower rooms were considerably scared
but uninjured. Mr.. Wm. Taplin, the watch
man, was fortunately ct the other end of the
