They have one. 2. Many passengers who go to Tampa by train come from GG1 territory and would be attracted to it. |

No, it's just an archeological remnant. Downtown used to be all railyards, and that station used to be 12 tracks wide. Harbor Island used to be called something else and was solely for Plants trains too. I had a photo of the last of the bridge, but even that and the tracks were covered up for a new museum. I think with all the condos they built in the background which are all new, there is only one spot with tracks in the street left in that spot. |
