This profusely illustrated book chronicles the evolution of the architecture of the railroad station in both Europe and America from the 1830s to the 1950s. It begins with the earliest train-shed and follows the progress of station design to the great structures erected in the Victorian Era-London’s Charing Cross Station (1862-64) and Berlin’s Anhalter Bahnhof (1872-80) among them.
