Take a look at what I saw on my stroll through Union Train Station today! How beautiful is this! Truly it takes one back to a ‘gilded age’ of traveling, don’t you think?
I hope your day is an enlightened one!

We often pass such items without a second glance as we rush through our working lives. An image that gives a moment of pause – well spotted Cher 🙂

A reflection of the days when one “dressed up” to travel… after all, only the “well-heeled” could afford to travel in style. Great post!
