Description

Ten historic railway stations: Grand Central, St Pancras, Antwerpen-Centraal, Luz, Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus, Tokyo Station, Flinders Street, Washington Union Station, Haydarpasa and Sirkeci. This selection does not rank buildings by age or size. Tokyo shows the restored Marunouchi side; St Pancras frontage includes its former hotel. Haydarpasa and Sirkeci are distinct buildings on different sides of Istanbul. Sirkeci is illustrated by historic arched doors and stained-glass windows, not the modern main entrance. Photographs do not establish current railway operation or visiting conditions. All photographs carry stated open licenses.
