During the Covid-19 quarantine, we are featuring beautiful and architecturally interesting transit stations.   Amtrak previously used the historic Southern Pacific Railroad (SP) Station, also known as Sunset Station. It was designed by SP’s architect Daniel J. Patterson in the Spanish Mission Revival style, and built in 1902. The train station was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1975. 

Restored & renovated interior, now used for functions and special events.
