Suppose some friends travel on the railroad to visit you. At what railroad station would the train arrive?

How are railroad stations built? Do you think they give a beautiful, clean, friendly welcome to strangers? All stations should be pleasant and comfortable to cheer the tired travelers that pass through them day and night.

At Denver, just outside of the station, there is a great arch stretching across the street. It says, 'Welcome,' in bright letters at night and in pretty letters in the day. The visitor is glad to see the friendly word after a long trip.

Notebook Work: Schedule an outing to look at a local train station or find an image online and sketch the outside of the building in your notebook.
