According to a topo map, in addition to L&N, the Western Railway of Alabama went through this station. And the Seaboard Air Line and Central of Georgia had branches from the east that terminated here.

posted two photos with the comment: "Union Station in Montgomery Ala., built by L&N in 1897-1898. I took the photos in February 1990 and in 1992 (train shed)."
Mike Davis: It seems like I heard somewhere that Gustav Eiffel had a hand in the design of the station? Has anyone else heard that or know anything about it?
John Tisdale: I owned the station and the shed until 1999. I was always told that the roof trusses were an Eiffel design, but I have no drawings or other documents to back that up. The L&N Historical Society may have this information in their records.
Jim Kelling
shared with the comment: "Union Station in Montgomery Alabama."
Andy Swan: Very nice does either remain?
