The Gentleman's Waiting Room exudes sophistication with its ornate ceiling moldings, polished wooden paneling, and plush seating arrangements. It was a space designed for comfort and refinement, providing gentlemen with a sanctuary while awaiting their train departures. Adjacent to it lies the General Waiting Room—a more inclusive area that catered to all passengers regardless of gender or social status.
