Reminiscence of the Olden Days

Kyle Train Depot and Heritage Center

Kyle Train Depot and Heritage Center offers a wealth of historical knowledge, and should be a very tempting venue for history enthusiasts.

I was however, attracted by the rustic looking buildings and backgrounds that were obviously photogenic. Below are some pictures of Ari, my family friend’s daughter, I took while visiting the place.
