Mt. Vernon, Ohio

This postcard, postmarked 1925, gives us a view of the station in Mt. Vernon, Ohio. The scene is from a time when the automobile had almost replaced horse-drawn wagons and carriages as part of the "down-at-the-depot" life. Here we see a Pennsylvania Railroad passenger train pulling in for a stop with plenty of freight, mail, and express waiting on the platform.
