The Staunton Amtrak station is located at 1 Middlebrook Avenue in Staunton, Virginia. The station is downtown in the (Wharf Area Historic District ). The station is a stop on Amtrak's Cardinal line, which runs from New York to Chicago, and has restrooms and waiting benches, but no ticket office. It serves a large area of the Shenandoah Valley. (Staunton no longer has intercity bus service. The closest Greyhound/Trailways station is 30 miles away.) Next to the station are restaurants, art studios and other attractions. For pedestrians, the historic Sears Hill Bridge and paved trail lead to the Sears Hill neighborhood and the Sears House in Woodrow Wilson Park. In 2010 the city closed the steel truss pedestrian bridge and approved its temporary removal for restoration.〔http://www.readthehook.com/blog/index.php/2010/07/29/landmark-saved-bridge-owner-staunton-partner-on-ped-bridge-fix/〕〔http://www.newsleader.com/article/20100728/NEWS01/7280330/Staunton-to-acquire-Sears-Hill-bridge〕 The old Staunton jail is nearby. Next to the station is a Chessie System caboose.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Caboose, Index W ) ''See also'' (linked photograph ).〕 The site of the station has been a railroad depot since 1854. The current station facility is the former telegraph tower from when the Staunton station functioned as a full passenger and freight railroad depot. While the platform still functions as the railroad platform for loading and unloading passengers, the former station buildings are now occupied by restaurants. ==See also== *American Hotel (Staunton, Virginia) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Staunton (Amtrak station)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
