If you travelled by train in France between the late 1940s and early 70s this will have you smelling the Gitanes & gauloises all over again - its is incredibly nostalgic! It looks at 22 stations around France, all now largely changed to a lesser or greater degree, and life in them during the later years of the steam era. The vast majority of the stations are large, and whilst a number of the 109 photographs, both colour and B&W, have appeared before, overall this is a lovely book, helped by the fact that many of the photographs are reproduced as double page spreads.138 pages.
