This Old Railroad Depot In West Virginia Is Now A Picture Perfect Cafe

Before travel by car became so widely available, rail travel connected the country. These days fewer people travel by train, and many former railway depots have since been abandoned. Others, however, have been repurposed for other wonderful places, and we have a great example right here in Huntington, West Virginia.

Editor’s Note: River and Rail Bakery is permanently closed. 

River and Rail Bakery is located inside an old railroad depot on the Ohio River.
