What Time The Train?
Saturday, April 12th, 2008 04:05 pmThis is my latest website find/obsession.
There are lots of old photos - by old I mean 1890s and later - of railway stations and trains from across the country. So, you can look at the photos of these stations of how they were in Oscar Wilde's day, Bertie Wooster's day, how they would have looked if Janet Frame had visited during her literary grant visit in the 1950s, right up to how they were in your own childhood and adolescence. And in many cases, there are plans to re-open or remodel the stations, so you can imagine how they will look in ten year's time.
