Description: 

The Jefferson train station appears in many of Faulkner's fictions, as the portal connecting Yoknapatawpha to the larger world. In this novel it is mentioned as the location through which "freight" for the town's stores arrives and from which Lucas' family leaves for Bay St. Louis (4).
