~ PIT STOP ~
Uploaded: March 08, 2010 04:35:44
This depot is one of the many HAVE A GREAT WEEK!!! 22mm ~ F/8 ~ 1/80sec. ~ ISO-160
"Pit Stops" along the BNSF railway
route is located in Harper Kansas.
I wasn't even sure that this old
depot was still used, as most of
the windows were boarded up, I
did peek in the windows and realized
that with all of the up-to-date
electronic equipment inside, that
it must still be a stop for some
trains. Besides, there were two
railroad line work trucks parked
outside. Guess that should have
been a clear indication that this
depot is still in operation.
I did wonder though what it must
have been like back in the day
when riding the train was one of the
major forms of transportation.

Super comp and detail, Jeana...reminds me of train depot in a town I lived in many years ago. The area was more built up, but the building itself resembled this one...thanks for the memories! #8439290MELODIE C. ROBERTS March 08, 2010
