A Classic Traditional City Terminal

My recent visits to Prague Masarykovo Nadrazi reminded me of other traditional railway terminals.

This Czech station  harks of Boston’s South Station as I remember it in the 1970s. It also bears similarities with  Hoboken’s Lackawanna Terminal and Chicago’s Dearborn Station.

Here we have ground level platforms, street level station buildings serving a mix of passenger trains.

Prague Masarykovo Nadrazi is a suburban station with an old shed over the concourse. Prague’s main station is only a 10-minute walk away.

I made this selection of images digitally using my Lumix LX7 and FujiFilm X-T1 cameras.
