There are two separate canopies at Depew. RyanS's photo is looking east. This telephoto(5 x) is looking west from the canopy in the RyanS photo with the relief engineer heading to the head end.(Edited too correct picture credit. Thanks ALC Rail Writer)

Ryan's photo, not mine.
Though yes, I see it now.

Rochester, NY?
Rochester, NY is correct, de Notelvis.
I am running out of station photos in my archive. Those who have been there probably recognized the roofless canopy(shadow) that has been mentioned by others on this forum. That clue coupled with a Viewliner trainset near a curve should have helped out.

It is pretty remarkable that this thread is about to reach 200 pages and still going strong. I need to get out and take a few new pictures myself..........
I did manage to find an interior photo of an active station which I took within the last couple of years.
One hint - this is a station served by a train on the long-distance network...... just one train each way every day. Can anyone name it?

Unless you've been there, a tough one....it looks like a beautifully maintained or restored classic depot, that could be found most anywhere in the country....I couldn't even begin to guess without more hints....
It does remind me somewhat of Rantoul, Illinois, but that has more than one train.....

I agree- that is one beautiful station.

No one has named the station yet.
This station has not, to my knowledge, undergone major renovation......... it has been maintained properly all along.
Two hints - 1) I said earlier "one train each way every day". That means this station is not one served by the Cardinal or Sunset Limited.
2) People who do not plan on stopping at this station often do when they need to be bustituted to preserve their same day connection.

Okay, how about Klamath Falls?

I obviously gave a great hint.
CHamilton is a winner. This is Klamath Falls during an on-time fresh air stop by #14 in June 2013.

Yes, that was a great hint. Although I almost guessed K-Falls the first time -- it looked awfully familiar. Okay, how about this one?
Hey, I was going to say that...if I could remember how to spell it. I think I read too much AU. :giggle:
Hint: I'm pretty sure that the guy in the middle is not a conductor, or even OBS.
