Hollywood, FL.

Yes, Hollywood, FL is correct.

Hate to Challenge the OP **** but that Pic ID'D as Hollywood Looks Just Like the Ft. Lauderdale Station! Are they Twins??? :help:

Jim,

It was clearly Hollywood, but it is somewhat similar to Ft Lauderdale.

Revisiting Hollywood for a second - here's a photo circa 1977 of the Hollywood, FL station from Trainweb. The giveaway is the sign on the two white poles. Here it is with the original Amtrak logo. THAT sign is still there, visible in the 'name that station' image but with the current Amtrak logo. I'm not aware of any station other than Hollywood which has a sign like this positioned the same way in relation to the station building and the platform.

Back to the station 'on the clock' -

No Shanghai, it is not Raleigh, NC. This station has little in common with Raleigh.

Here's a hint - no train which stops at the station in this photo carries a sleeping car.

A 'bonus' hint - This is a photo which I took while sitting on a train making the station stop.

How about this for our next one?

Station is active and busy. Shouldn't take long for someone in this part of the country to recognize it.

I would say that is Lancaster, PA., based on the deflectors over the tracks. The catenary would be above the photographer on the main tracks.

The station appears to be a lot cleaner since I was last there.

RRRick is a winner with Lancaster, PA.

Well done. Your turn to post!

I thought that looked familiar. I was just in Portland in May and spotted 184 waiting to head out on that day's Empire Builder. Here's a picture. (Note: This isn't my contribution for you to guess where this station is. It's Portland. Just to avoid confusion...)

Okay, here's my actual entry. This station has been in this thread a couple of times, but not from this angle that I've seen. The sign on the roof has the station name, but I blurred it out.

Jim, you are correct.

Since I can't Post Pics it's Open to anyone that has a One ready! (Union Station is One of my Faves Charlie, I'm looking Forward to seeing the "Rehabbed" King Street Station when I can get back to Seatlle!)
