 Post subject: Train sheds
PostPosted: Fri Oct 01, 1999 9:52 pm 

<P>How many "classic" passenger train sheds still exist in the U.S.? I can count five, only one of which still sees passenger service. That is Harrisburg, PA. The other four are Reading Terminal at Philadelphia (now a convention center), Mt. Royal at Baltimore (CSX freights still pass through), Main Street at Richmond (Shed is now offices, but passenger service is to be restored using outside platforms), and St.Louis (mall). Are there others?<br>

<P>If you expand the scope to include sheds that are still standing, but not necessarily at their original site, you can add the Grand Rapids Union Depot shed to the list.<p>It still stands, but in two sections at a lumber yard on 54th Street, just east of US-131 in Grand Rapids, Michigan.<p>-fm<br><br>
