Description
Kansas City Union Station opened in 1914, serving Kansas City, Missouri, and the surrounding metropolitan area. It replaced a small Union Depot from 1878. Union Station served a peak annual passenger traffic of over 670,000 in 1945 at the end of World War II, quickly declining in the 1950s and was closed in 1985.
In 1996, a public/private partnership began funding Union Station's $250 million restoration. By 1999, the station reopened as a series of museums and other public attractions. In 2002, Union Station saw its return as a train station when Amtrak began providing public transportation services and has since become Missouri's second-busiest train station.

Nice capture of a stunningly beautiful building. I had the opportunity to walk through this building on one of my recent trips to KC and was thoroughly impressed how beautiful it is both inside and out. They don't make them like that anymore...
