Gettysburg Train Stations

[spongebob]

I was looking at some old postcards and there's one for the Gettysburg Train Station which describes it as the one Lincoln arrived/departed. But its not the one on Carlisle and RR, its on the West side of Washington Street at Railroad Street. Or in other words, its down in the rear from the Lincoln Diner, whereas the one that Lincoln arrived at is in front of the diner. (haha) I think this old postcard, (Union News Co., #1151; c 1910 ) incorrectly identifies it as the Lincoln arrival and departure station. And I see it on Google Maps, street view, with a historic plaque in front of the building. Can anyone confirm and also tell me whats on that plaque and/or the significance of this RR building?
Thanks
Bob
