A Once Popular Train Station Restaurant Is Now Decaying In America’s Heartland

Step inside this historic Pennsylvania train station that has led a double life as a popular nightlife venue. From 19th-century gilded ceilings and stately elegance, to tiki torches and college students, this amazing structure has seen it all.

The property is actually on the National Register of Historic Places, but that hasn’t prevented it from falling into extreme disrepair. Still, the beautiful historic details that remain are truly eye-catching, especially as they contrast with the more modern touches.

Thanks to Youtube channel "TheUnknownCameraman" for the fascinating footage of this abandoned train station.

This train station was built in the 1860s and operated until the 1970s.

It was converted to a high-end restaurant in the 1980s, and guests were able to spend the night in a converted train car B&B.

Eventually, the restaurant and bar closed due to a rising number of fights, robberies, shootings and stabbings.

Today, the abandoned station is a mix of the old and the new. Crystal chandeliers still hang from the ceiling, while retro turntables gather dust in the venue space.
