Not 30th Street.

Wild guess. Back Bay , Boston?

Is that a weird third rail to the right of the tracks or just a curb?

Sorry, my other right, the left hand side...

 

[Ngotwalt]

Nope, that's just the curb. Not Back Bay.

Trying to remember a 4 track basement station with red doors leading up. This rules out the larger stations.

While you guys are still working on the station that isn't Albuquerque, NM (Forgive me, I just stumbled on this thread and misread the last few posts, it's late forgive me). I hope you don't mind if I make an offering of my own.

I really don't think this is correct, but I'll throw it out anyway.

Milwaukee, Wisconsin?

Indianapolis

Not Baltimore or Indianapolis.

I have no idea where this is, but I'm trying to find some clues. Is it just me or does there seem to be a third rail to the right of the platform edge?

I think the last photo is Montreal Central.

 

[Ngotwalt]

We have a winner. Gare Centrale, Montreal. I was counting on that overhead to throw everyone off, forgetting Montreal has electric commuter trains.

Cheers,

Let me barge in here. Should be fairly easy.

 

[Lonestar648]

Wow, good one. Was going through every station with the waiting area above. Never thought of Montreal.

 

[Lonestar648]

Oakland?

 

[pennyk]

Auto Train Sanford?

 

[Grandpa D]

Correct!! SFA. It's from last October and the train was ON TIME! Really enjoyable trip to Virginia. SCA Matt is the best.

Yep good job throwing me off - I saw the catenary wire and what looks like a pretty low-level platform in the foreground but a high-level platform off to the right of the picture. I was trying like mad to figure out which station on the NEC would have both a high-level and a low-level platform and couldn't come up with one other than WAS, and I was fairly certain it wasn't WAS. Nice work, all!

 

[Ngotwalt]

Who's up for another, this one might be a little easier than Montreal.
