Marion, OH: Union Depot: Hocking Valley plus Erie & Big Four plus Pennsy

Marion Ohio, Marion County, PU1909. Union Depot.
[Big Four would be in the foreground. The man is standing next to the CSX/Hocking Valley tracks. The photographer appears to be standing on the Erie tracks. The Pennsy tracks were on the other side of the depot.]
I'm glad it has been preserved because I guessed the wrong place according to a 1959 aerial photo. The CSX/Hocking Valley is on the west side, the NS/Pennsy is on the east side. Both the Erie and Big Four went along the north side with Big Four closest to the depot. CSX uses Erie through here and to the east. They use Big Four to leave town to the west.
