Description
This is famous and historical Harpers Ferry Train Depot located in Harpers Ferry, WVA.
It is currently served by Amtrak's Capitol Limited as well as MARC commuter service. Built by the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, the station is part of the Harpers Ferry Historic District. It is a wooden frame Victorian style building, dating from 1889. It sits on buried foundations of original Harpers Ferry armory buildings. In 2007, the station was rededicated following a $2.2 million renovation, which included restoration of the station's tower. (Emmy Vickers)

Great work here, Emmy! Still on my list of places to get to. I haven't yet. There's a great viral YouTube video from here of a man shooting a train in the direction coming toward us and almost getting hit by a second train coming from behind. Another photographer pulls him out of the way. So be careful here!
Emmy Vickers replied:
Thanks Joseph for the compliments and the share. It is a nice day trip or overnight trip, especially in late spring through mid fall. Thanks for the additional info. No worries, I am very careful. The trains do not run often, and I would never be on the tracks when a train is coming. For this view, I was on the tracks, but zoomed in for a closer view.
