Canton, Ohio, owes much of its development to the railroads, and the city once had as many as five busy railroad yards much like the one in this photo.
Canton has just one railroad yard these days, but check out this bird's-eye view of what Canton's railroad center might have appeared during its busiest heyday.
This is an image I made of the massive HO model train layout recreating various Ohio railroad stops in miniature at Canton's William McKinley Presidential Library and Museum.
Read my story, Discover something for everyone at the William McKinley Museum in Canton, Ohio, to learn more about our visit to there.
Thanks to Debbie Dubrow of Delicious Baby for creating and coordinating Photo Friday to link travel photos and blog posts across the Web.
Thanks to the Canton-Stark County Convention & Visitors Bureau for their assistance with planning our recent visit to Canton and arranging for comped media passes to the museum.

I love taking a photo from an unexpected angle. I thought this one had more impact than an overall shot of the entire model train track set up. :)
