A visual history of the railroad station
Carroll L. V. Meeks traces railroad-station architecture in Europe and America from the 1830s to the 1950s. The book’s 231 visual materials—including photographs, illustrations, floor plans, and cutaways—make the station’s design and changing forms the focus. Its broad time span and transatlantic scope place public and commercial architecture within the history of rail travel, while the range of images offers several ways to examine the buildings and their layouts.
