Toledo, OH is a city in western Ohio who has it's two Amtrak round-trips a day stopping in portions of what hasn't been abandoned of it's old Railroad Hub. The station has low level platforms like all of those in Ohio since the Capital Limited uses Superliners with quite old looking metal canopies over all of the platforms most of which have been abandoned. There is even an area with two abandoned stup-end platforms to the east of the large station building. There were definitely underpasses at one time into the large, boring and 1950s looking station building as well as an overpass to the building that is still in existence but has no public access. Passengers get out to the far tracks using wooden level crossings. |
