When St. Louis' Union Station opened to the public in 1894, nearly 10,000 people gathered to celebrate.

Modeled after the walled city of Carcassonne, France, Union Station was one of the busiest in the world during its heyday. Follow the history of this great architectural triumph from its original glory days through its demise and rebirth.
