Cake 81- Kirkwood Train Station

Found October 11, 2014


This historic train station adds to the historic and quaint feel of downtown Kirkwood.  Visiting downtown Kirkwood reminded me of time spent the last two years in Cedarburg, Wisconsin.  In 2002, Amtrak was on the verge of closing the Kirkwood station to save money.  The City of Kirkwood offered to buy the station and find volunteers to staff the station so that they would not lose this wonderful gem located in their city.  Since April of 2003, the city has been able to maintain the use of the station.  For more details on services provided at the station, click here.

I love that the cake features an Amtrak train around the sides of the cake.
