The Old Lancaster Station - Until it was preplaced in 1929 with a a new station on the northern part of the city, the Pennsy's passenger depot dominated lancaster's down town intersection of North Queen and Chestnut Street. The building itself took on a macabre roll in 1865 when it became an improptu morgue for the victims of the wreck of the "Day Express," at Kauffman's Mill east of Landisville in October of that year.
