An abandoned rail station not far from where I live, Back in it's day it was a hot spot for Photographers, in fact I can still find and purchases original post cards as well as original prints from various periods of time. Though not holding the status in any official capacity The Erie station of Salamanca NY is this cities one true land mark. After a few attempts of restoration has bankrupted those who felt it worth trying she is now under the control of the Seneca Nation of Indians, and has been so for the last several years. It is uncertain but unlikely the Nation will follow threw with any restoration. Even in the event they did, This station will never again see commuters as an agreement with Norfolk Southern (I believe it is) will not allow passenger cars on these rails, because they do not want them back in the event of accident. So this is all that remains of what was once this cities proudest achievements, obscured in the shadows of a native owned casino and inexpensive fuel.

Please feel free to piont out composition or post production issues, I wasn't paying attention to that part of things (by that I don't mean during the shot, I just did not learn about it).
