Down by the Depot
by George Douglas
In small towns, the station with its ticking clock and the tap of the telegrapher's key was a center of community life. In the big cities, the grand terminal, teeming with the bustle of a burgeoning metropolis, stood out as the architectural jewel.
"Down by the Depot," from the book All Aboard! The Railroad in American Life, by George Douglas, examines how the railroad and its depots shaped the lives of Americans and the communities they lived in.
