But there is one area in which we do specialize - we are a regional journal, and in particular, a Cleveland journal. We have allowed ourselves to be partial to articles about the city by Cleveland writers, and those writers have not let us down.

  • A Tale of Three Cities the Union Stations of Cleveland, Columbus
    A Tale of Three Cities The Union Stations of Cleveland, Columbus, and Cincinnati Jeffrey T. Darbee Introduction I was fortunate enough to attend college near Chicago in the late 1960s and became a railfan as I learned more and more about the vast tapestry of trains, junctions, stations, and operations of the nation’s Railroad Capital. Riding the fast-dwindling fleet of privately operated passenger trains became my passion, and in doing so I spent a lot of time in railroad stations, depots, and terminals. Large or small, elegant or spare, these were the primary point of contact between the railroad companies and the public. In smaller towns, “Down at the depot” was where an endless stream of passengers, baggage, mail, express, and telegrams arrived and departed, the focal point of much of the community’s economic life. The depots played an important symbolic role as well. Often executed in distinctive architectural styles, they were intended to reflect well on the railroad company and to provide services and amenities in a setting that would impress, awe, or inspire patrons. Many times in smaller communities, the railroad station was the most distinctive and ornamental building in town. The same was true in larger communities, and particularly so in the case of union stations, those shared by two or more railroad companies. Employing established architects working in cutting-edge styles, railroad and union depot companies built memorable stations in all sizes and designs. As a railfan in the 1960s, I was as fascinated by the stations as I was by the trains that served them.
