Warsaw station is a former train station in Warsaw, Indiana.
History[edit]
The station site was established as a depot by the Pittsburgh, Fort Wayne and Chicago Railway.[2] The brick station building was constructed by the Pennsylvania Railroad in 1893.[3] It was served by several of the railroad's named trains, including the Manhattan Limited and Admiral.[4] Trains ceased to serve Warsaw by 1971 when Amtrak assumed most passenger operations in the United States.
On October 27, 1985, Amtrak added the station as a stop on their Broadway Limited and Capitol Limited lines.[5] Services ended after November 11, 1990, when trains were rerouted further north.

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
