(erielack) Bush Trainsheds, where, when and how much



There have been several discussions on the list of where there were Bush
Trainsheds. I found this list on page 42 of John Droege's 1916 "Passenger
Terminals and Trains" on Google Books. You'll need a wide screen and tab
settings close to mine to not see this all jumbled up.
