Photo Essay: Train Stations

You are here: Home / Photography / Photo Essay: Train Stations

//  by Lisa 6 Comments

Are you traveling for the holidays?  Some find it a chaotic hassle, but I kind of like being in airports or train stations during the hustle and bustle – so many trying to get home to loved ones near and far. I have spent some of my favorite holidays abroad either completely alone or laughing and breaking bread with new friends and making memories that I cherish always. (I’m thinking of Sean, Craig, & Helen in Sydney, Elissa in London, Kristy in Sevilla, Adam from Philly in Krakow, Couchsurfers in Milano, Halley, Sonia, Vanessa, & my other Egypt friends!) So please enjoy this photo essay of some of the many train stations I’ve traveled through over the years.

    I find train stations very interesting. Sometimes they are the best architecture in the city!

      Hi Debbie! Thanks for your comment. I agree…the old architecture of train stations always seems to have 'grandeur' that newer buildings lack!

    This is a great photo essay. My favourite shot is actually the first one with the motion blur.

      Thanks Samuel! I took the LA train station shot about 8 years ago! I loved the craftsmen architecture.
