    1. [WIRICHLA] Richland Center Depot Restored
    2. The Bethke's
    3. The Richland Center railroad depot built in 1909 is almost restored. The dedication will be during the Center Color Fiesta, October 5, 6 & 7. The interior of the depot will be office space for Richland Center Chamber of Commerce, economic development and vistors center for Richland County. The restored depot will look very different than what we are used to seeing. Instead of white paint, it will be restored to a dark rusty brown with dark green trim. These colors are matched from the actual paint samples found on the building during the restoration. (for a photo of how the depot looked the past several decades look here) http://www.richlandchamber.com/chamber.shtml The awning will be recreated on the north end of the depot. Engraved bricks are being sold for $35 each, these will be laid underneath the awning. If you wish to have up to up to 30 letters in 3 lines engraved in a brick (about 10 characters per line - maximum of 13), you may contact <info@richlandchamber.com> Chamber Office, 174 S Central Ave.
