Name That Station!

[amtrakwolverine]

Ok guess this station.

 

[TCRT]

Isn't that

Spoiler

Havre, MT

?

 

[amtrakwolverine]

yes your turn

 

[TCRT]

I have finally run out of hard-to-guess station photos that I actually like. I guess I need to take another trip.......

Who knows where this (mediocre) shot is from?

 

[Ryan]

That looks like KIN, home of The Traveller.

 

[TCRT]

KIN is a good guess, but it's not KIN.

 

[Thunder Road]

New London, CT?

 

[amtrakwolverine]

Wilmington?

 

[TCRT]

New London, CT?

New London is correct. Your turn.

 

[Thunder Road]

Hopefully this isn't as hard as McCook, Nebraska.

 

[Thunder Road]

Two hints:

1. That's not an Amtrak train in the picture (as if you couldn't tell) because

2. Amtrak only stops here at night

 

[Shawn Ryu]

Obviously, definitely a freight train.

 

[Montanan]

I'd say that's Arkadelphia, Arkansas ... one of the coolest-sounding town names on the Amtrak system.

 

[Shanghai]

You beat me by 20 minutes!!

I think the street that crossed the tracks in the photo must be Thunder Road!!

 

[Thunder Road]

Arkadelphia it is! (Photo credit; http://www.trainweather.com/trains-dec19-dec24-2007.html)

Your turn Montanan!

Heh ... sorry for Shanghai-ing you out on Thunder Road!

Anyhow, here's one from a trip I did about three years ago ... a little railway "film noir":

Looks to me like the Texas Eagle / Sunset Limited in Houston, TX.

Do you recall when I met you and your friend in the diner on the

Texas Eagle? I was sitting with Rob Tabern.

Denver?

Nope, not Houston. And I hate to say it, but are you sure it wasn't some other Montanan? My TE and Sunset trips have all been solo ...

Denver?

Denver it is! You can see the facade of the station building on the left side of the photo. You're up!

 

[manchacrr]

What station is this?

 

[kal-tex]

Longview, Texas?

Edit: I know this one isn't Longview - my guess was for different picture that was showing on my screen at the time. (P.S. Longview wasn't the right answer for that one either!)

 

[Shawn Ryu]

Fort Worth Texas?

No.

No.

 

[amtrakwolverine]

Dallas TX?.

 

[Shanghai]

How about Royal Oak, Michigan??
