ST. LOUIS
LIGHT RAIL
Train Shed, Union Station |
|
|
Union Station was once a major hub for mainline
passenger rail traffic heading in from all directions on the multiple
carriers serving St. Louis. Trains no longer call at its huge
shed, visible in this view. But the terminal building, elegantly restored
and out of sight to the right, has been turned into a popular visitor
location, with restaurants, stores and a hotel.
This view looks
down on the Union Station stop on MetroLink.
Amtrak maintains a modest level of activity at St. Louis, and has a
station, recently constructed, adjacent to the Civic Center light rail
station, the next stop inbound along the light rail route.
