A few years ago, my parents lived in Virginia, near Washington DC. Rather than make the drive alone, I took the sleeper car from Savannah to Union Station in DC when I visited for Christmas. I didn’t sleep very well and was up early in the morning. So I snapped a few pictures of the towns we passed through.
I was interesting to see a town center or a crossing from other side. It was like looking in a 2-way mirror. These were the buildings and storefronts that serve (or served) a purpose when train travel (and shipping) was king. Now, many of these are warehouses, or empty. Rusting, dilapidated and nearly forgotten. All captured from the window of a moving train.
