It is rectangular in shape and constructed primarily of rough-cut sandstone. The upper portion of the long walls is brick with arched clerestory-type windows. The roof is an arched wooden truss type. It formerly had a monitor on top, but this feature was removed in 1976 and the resulting hole covered with wood. The shop building is quite tall. This enables a 15-ton Niles crane to roll back and forth above the tracks inside. The crane is used to lift locomotives and traction motors for repair. An array of lathes, drill presses, grinders, and other elderly machinery (all driven by a common overhead belt drive system) remains intact inside the building. This portion of the building has been used primarily for maintenance and repair of the YVT's locomotives and streetcars. It currently also serves as a secure storage space for YVT's remaining locomotives. A lower wing on the east side of the building, also constructed of stone, houses YVI's trainmen's room, blacksmith shop, and supply storage rooms. Formerly, there was another wing attached to the west side of the building for storage of streetcars. This structure, called the "running barn," was made primarily of wood, had four tracks inside, and was demolished in 1976. Its stone foundation and tracks remain….”
