of

Station
,
Columbus
,
Ohio
. The
photograph
includes
a
view
of the

.

by the
famous

H
.

, and the

completed
two
years
later

the

(1893)
in

century
,
train

all
but
one
arch
of the
ornate
facade
was
demolished
. The
station
continued
to
offer
Amtrak
service
until
April
1977
, but
it
was
demolished
in
September
1978
. The
surviving
arcade
arch
stands
in
Dimon
McPherson
Park
