Here is a station that was unoccupied when I visited by road.

It is not Reno, NV or Whitefish, MT. Hints *** This is a very old building on a very old railroad route. Think pre-Civil War !

It was the pre-civil war hint that did it for me...... personally I have never been inside the Martinsburg station. Looks nicer than I realized.

OK...... here's one - this is an inactive Amtrak station. The Amtrak train on this route still passes by here but the Amtrak stop has been moved a few miles away to a different suburb. There are clues which the sharp-eyed station spotter will likely pick up though. I rate this one as 'moderately easy'.

Who can name it?

You are correct railiner.

It's the old B&O station at Silver Spring, MD circa 1981 or so.

Photo taken from a DC Metro Red Line train by a teenager with a fairly new camera. I had no idea at the time that just over a decade later I would wind up living nearby while in grad school at the University of Maryland.

You're up sir.

And now I'm off for a little train ride operated by the good folks at the Tennessee Valley Railroad Museum.
