On September 15, 2018, 15 people who were interested in Union Station’s history purchased tickets to take part in a tour. It was such a success that Union Station Redevelopment Corporation is offering this tour again in November. When asked for feedback, John, a September participant, said “This tour offered a great nexus for me. I love old buildings and am fascinated by trains.” He also mentioned, “I have already recommended this tour to several people.”

If you are interested in learning about Washington, DC’s Union Station, please join us for a tour on November 3rd. Your tour guide will take you inside and outside beautiful Union Station and impart knowledge on the history of this amazing landmark.
