Aug 12, 2008 - Glad you got some use out of it. Are you a local author? I'm in the process of publishing a book on the railroad stations of Georgia. I live in Vienna. Hour and a half drive from Columbus.

Aug 12, 2008 - oh, no....loli'm italian and live in trieste, italy----day and a half from columbus by plane! :)i'm about half-way in my sci-fi story ("memphis to infinity") and, at the moment, the protagonist is stuck back in a weird 1954 in columbus, heading for pittsburgh by a rented car and then to new york by plane----I found your pic particularly useful as i had to describe the protagonist's

Aug 12, 2008 - to describe the protagonist's arrival at columbus station (hope the building you photographed was already there in 1954....)nice project, yours...rail stations are very evocative, visually!
