But Google told me it was here!!!



The abandoned former Amtrak Midway station in St. Paul, Minnesota. When we were there back in June, 2018 google maps was still showing this as an active Amtrak station even though it had been closed for a while (it is no longer showing on google maps). As it turned out it was only a short distance from our wonderful AirBnB that we stayed at. There is also an interesting model railroad museum just to the south of this old station. It looks like either this building started deteriorating fast or Amtrak had not been taking care of it for some time.
