What a nest, nostalgic building.

What a beautiful train station; it has a style all of it's own. I actually look for train stations when I go through towns. Not the new stations, but the old nostalgic ones. There is a real beauty and history to them.

What a jewel.

I doubt if many youngsters will appreciate the symbalism of the train station.  Us old timers recall traveling by train and the respite of the train stations.

Many of our old train stations are commuter stations now. 

I love old train stations.  It must be the positive aura that surrounds them for all the hello's and goodbyes taken place.

Hi Jeff, This is really nostalgic. You must be very proud of the fact that as a blogger, you have gotten out there and learned the significance of so much in and around Carlsbad and the whole county. As you write about San Diego , its history and the many buildings , sites, parks and the cultural influences , it must even amaze you at how much you have learned and the depth of it as well as the quick speak. Then being able to share, it far exceeds most of the individual efforts or organizational efforts that are usually centered about just one place or site. Pretty amazing isn't it. 

Being Mother's Day today,  I wrote an article on the History of Mother's Day. I doubt if I weren't blogging, I would have ever taken the time to learn about it and when it is all done at the end of the day, we have done good things Jeff.

Jeff I love these old train depots, in fact one of the Realtors that I call on and who is also a member of AR, Valerie Osterhoudt's Real Estate Office is one of these old train depots that they converted into their office.

I do enjoy all the history of an area. Information like this does make where you live special. Thanks for sharing.

Love the train station, and all your localism posts.
