Description
Main Street Station
Richmond, Va.
She's survived floods, a fire, the construction of I-95 directly to her side and above her and, perhaps worst of all for a train station, the cancellation of all passenger trains. But in 2008, she stands tall and proud and even hosts several Amtrak trains a day now.
The Main Street Station, one of the few French Renaissance buildings in Richmond, exemplifies a standard train station plan of the late-nineteenth century. Designed by Wilson, Harris and Richards of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, who also designed the Pennsylvania-Reading Station, the station was a very busy travel center of the city during the heyday of passenger service.
Before Amtrak, she was served by both the Chesapeake & Ohio and Seaboard Air Line railroads.
The blur of the car was intentional in hopes of giving the station a timeless quality.
