WHO,
WHAT, WHY, & HOW?
Who is responsible for this page?
How did it develop?
- Following my graduation from University
I was awarded a Watson Fellowship to examine the similarities
between 19th century Victorian railroad stations and 17th
century Baroque churches in France, Italy, and the United
Kingdom. Already fascinated with these vast cathedrals of
the Industrial Revolution, I soon became obsessed. From
the project's inception I wanted to share my observations and
discoveries with others. Stations are buildings for the
masses and the internet is the people's medium. Since the
site's inception it has become one of
the most popular railroad station sites
on the internet and won numerous awards.
Can I add material?
- Yes!
Contributions are very welcome. If you have pictures, postcards, articles, books,
links, art or anything else and would like to see them included
on this site,
please contact me at riesterz@gmail.com.
How did you create the site?
- This site was created by myself using
Front Page and personal html skills. Pictures and
animations were made with Photoshop 7.
How can I contact you?
- You may contact me via email at riesterz@gmail.com All
questions will be answered within a week.
Do you have
any other sites?
- Funny you should ask,
but yes I do. I am not only obsessed
with railroad stations and trains, I also love
all things automotive. Ironic
considering that the popularity of the car has
been one of the most prominent factors in the
destruction and demise of many great stations,
but I have never been able to shake my love of
motorcars. For more please visit
