Spokane Station Clock

Accurate timekeeping has always been a critical part of railroad operations, and the station clock was (and still is) the public symbol of this fact. It was salvaged from the Spokane, Washington Union Station when it was razed in the early 70's and is currently on display in a museum. Spokane was perhaps *the* railroad hub of the entire Pacific Northwest.
