Mount  Royal Station        The Mount Royal Station has to be the most photographed train station in Baltimore. Postcards can be found of the old rail station for nearly any year.  The six postcards seen here are only a sample of the views taken of the old station over the years. No longer used as a train station, the building is now used as part of the Maryland Institute of Art campus.	............ ..................................................................................Postcard View

Union Station     Before Pennsylvania Station, Baltimore's main line train station was an older structure known as Union Station. Union Station was torn down and the current Penn Station was constructed, and for a while the new train station went under the name of Union Station, later being changed to the current name.	...................... ....................................................................Postcard View
Penn Station          An aerial view looking northwest over the Calvert Street Bridge , the Jones Falls, and the newly constructed Penn Station. This view has changed quite a bit over the years, the bridge today is less ornate, and the water and park have been replaced by the Jones Falls Expressway.	....................... ...................................................................Postcard View

Calvert Street Station    For years Calvert Street had a train station near the southeast corner of Calvert and Centre Streets.. The Sunpapers building occupies the site today and there is no trace of the old train station. Calvert Station was built in 1856 and was torn down in 1950. The photos here were taken in the late 1940's.      The view on the right shows a Northwest look from Guilford Avenue. You can see the elevated Guilford Avenue streetcar line in the foreground, and in the distance, the Washington Monument on the left and the Belvedere Hotel on the right.	.......... ..........................................................................................Photo from the Kilduffs Collection

Looking north off of the Orleans Street Viaduct, you can see much of the Calvert Street Station, with the entrance blocked by a lone row building. Calvert Street appears to have been a two way street when the picture was take in the late 1940's.	......... ............................................................................................Photo from the Kilduffs Collection

Looking off the Orleans Street Viaduct , this " aerial " view of the Calvert Street Station shows a view that has completely changed today. The Standard Oil building is stands today ( converted into Condos ) and of course the Washington Monument is still there, but much of the view, including the smaller houses on Calvert Street have long been replaced.                 The picture below shows the same view , but with the photographer on the ground this time.	...................................................................................................Photo from the Kilduffs Collection
