Train in stone

[Marcus Marcusson]

This somewhat unsharp image shows one of the blocks between Stortorget
(“big square”) and the Central Station in Malmö, Sweden. At the façade
the latest of the latest, the crème de la crème of the technology, are
cut in stone!

Actually, as well shipping as airplanes are represented at their own
pillars – we don’t care...

The Hudson-Bergen Light Rail line in New Jersey (opened in April 2000),
the Liberty State Park station is near the site of the Communipaw
Roundhouse of the Central RR of New Jersey. Embedded in the surface of
the platforms are these images:

Note the pattern of the turntable and radial tracks.

Here are shots of the roundhouse, probably taken around 1970:
