What great stories, and what a great train. It is sad to see the Orient Express like this. And yet the station is every bit as wonderful as you said.<BR/><BR/>Thanks,<BR/>WayneWaynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01721569905453247605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38581932.post-73426798990118657472007-11-24T14:24:00.000+01:002007-11-24T14:24:00.000+01:00What a beautiful building.

Of course, the station's facade is far different than the other buildings you have shown us. It seems so much more utilitarian, which suits it.Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09223040482420514208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38581932.post-88984638344865810022007-11-24T13:10:00.000+01:002007-11-24T13:10:00.000+01:00Wowee, Thanks for sharing these!

A painter might do it.<BR/><BR/>But, yes, isn't it strange how the shapes, colours, mist, light, (whatever) reach out and grab you in certain personal way? Just like those "rusting Chevies" I touched on ages ago. What is it?Chuckeroonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06933397626094422959noreply@blogger.com
