EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this photograph of Union Station in Portland, Maine, USA. Circa 1908, this image transports us to the early 1900s, an era of grandeur and innovation in American transportation. Located at the corner of Congress and St. John Street, the Union Station stands proudly, a testament to the city's rich history. The Union Station, a large and imposing structure, is a prime example of Gothic Revival architecture. Its intricate design, with pointed arches, ornate details, and a towering clock tower, reflects the architectural trends of the time. The station served as a hub for both rail and road travel, with horse-drawn carriages and automobiles sharing the streets with trains. The photograph captures the station in all its glory, with the towering clock tower casting long shadows over the cobblestone streets. Horses and carriages are parked outside, while a lone car can be seen in the distance. The railway tracks stretch out into the horizon, ready to whisk travelers away to their destinations. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, a time when travel was an adventure, and Union Station was the gateway to the world for the people of Portland, Maine. It is a reminder of the importance of preserving our history and the role that transportation has played in shaping our communities.
