Here's a postcard photo of Dayton's grand station in 1914.
If I have the story straight, about 1950, the city and the railroad agreed
to elevate the tracks through downtown and the great station was replaced with
a modest brick structure which has since been torn down also.
It is probably that second station that you're father was referring to.
