This stunning book is a celebration of the life and architecture of the railway station and its evolution. It provides a highly readable and informative account of the social and political context of stations over the last 150 years. Beautiful archive photographs and drawings combine with the ephemera of railway travel - the signage, posters, tickets, and the design of the trains themselves - and with new photography of some of the world's most magnificent railway buildings, to create a fascinating and visual record for all those interested in trains, buildings and travel.
