It’s the weekend in downtown Plant City, a time when many an urban core sleeps, waiting for the business week to bring the streets back to life with shoppers and office workers.
But on this Saturday as springtime arrives, the shops stay open late and the streets teem with young families pushing strollers, older couples holding hands and youngsters tugging on parents’ sleeves, wanting to explore the Union Station train depot. Music from the ‘50s, ‘60s and ‘70s fills the air, providing ambiance for row upon row of yesteryear’s cars, each with its hood up, open for inspection.
