English: This statue was placed here by Station Carbondale, Inc. through donations from people dedicated to the preservation of Carbondale's railroad history.
The first train came to Carbondale, July 4, 1854. As many as 53 passenger trains passed through here each day at the peak of our railroad activity. We salute our railroaders for their hard work and dedication to their profession.
