Three ladies decorate the inside of the Ada Railroad Depot on Tuesday for holiday parties, which will be held there and for Merry on Main, set for Monday evening.
Ruth Roider (standing left) and JoNell Hanratty (standing) have been making the depot sparkle at Christmastime for more than 20 years.
They are assisted by Karen Ward, a relative newcomer to making the depot a joyous place during the holiday season.
