Ok name this station. Should be easy.

 

[Shanghai]

Philadelphia??

 

[Notelvis]

New Haven, CT?

 

[AmtrakBlue]

New Carrolton?

 

[amtrakwolverine]

sorry not any of the above.

 

[Ryan]

Not the NEC, that's somewhere between PHL and Harrisburg.

 

[KrazyKoala]

LNC, Lancaster?

 

[amtrakwolverine]

not Lancaster and it is located on the NEC.

 

[Ryan]

Not many low level platforms to choose from.

The cab car looks like the Pennsy, so I guess somewhere between PHL and NYP then.

 

[amtrakwolverine]

My mistake ryan its not the NEC its between PHL and HAR i thought you didn't notice the overhead wires.

 

[Swadian Hardcore]

Metropark?

 

[amtrakwolverine]

not metropark.

 

[Swadian Hardcore]

Argh, must be Northern NEC then. There looks to be high-tension wires. Don't know where.

If it's on the Keystone Corridore and not Landcaster, with island platforms it's gotta be Harrisburg.

Detroit Central

Ryan, Detroit is correct. What a shame this formerly grand station has nearly gone to ruin.

Your turn to post a picture.

Why are there so many offices above the hall, though?

That was the headquarters for the NYC subsidiary Michigan Central Railway. I don't know if they used all of that office space, but more likely leased some of it out........

Thanks, I thought that the combination of low platform, overhead wires and cab car narrowed it down a good bit. I just need to get up there and ride the darn thing.

 

[amtrakwolverine]

DC train is correct. your turn to post.
