An abandoned train station in California, once a bustling hub, is captured in a beautiful drone video.
Railroads were once the most important arteries of transportation in the nation. Today, they've taken a backseat to air travel. Check out this incredible video of an abandoned, but still achingly beautiful train station in California. The footage of this once-bustling depot, courtesy of YouTube channel "Seeker Stories" will absolutely tug at your heartstrings.
The Bayshore Train Yard station began operations in Brisbane around 1868.
It was referred to as "The Jewel of Southern Pacific's Coast Division," and was a spectacular sight in its time.
These walls saw the traffic of two World Wars, countless happy meetings, and painful goodbyes.
The train station was shuttered in 1982, as a result of the introduction of more efficient diesel trucks and the rising popularity of car travel.
