At the Station

The Pacific Central railway station in Vancouver .... where my husband left late in the evening for a 3 nights, 2 1/2 days train ride from Vancouver to Toronto (about 5000 km) - access to the platform is only for travellers, so I had to wave to him and take my photo through the glass door !!!

    Love the lighting and those classic 1950s streamlined cars - truly timeless, and hat's off to VIA for maintaining this equipment.
    Sadly, I must agree with Sabine about not allowing loved ones to kiss by the steps to the sleeper. What do they think they're running - a bloody airport? Our times, I guess, but truly a missing dimension.
    Happily, your image evokes memories of gliding through the Banff Rockies in that domed observation car, on the way to Vancouver, Molson in one hand, a camera in the other ;-)
    Cheers,
    Steve

    It certainly looks cleaner and more modern than NYC Terminal - I especially like the blue & green lighteffect!

    Das ist ja sehr interessant. Ich meine, daß Dein Ehemann diese Eisenbahnstrecke befährt. Ich als Eisenbahnfan würde da gerne mal mitfahren.

    They are strict at the train station! I hope he had a good journey and it didn't seem too long. I hope the train was comfortable for his long journey too.
    Hugs

    Maravillosos violetas en esas marquesinas de la estación, muy buen control de la luz en esos difíciles colores mezclados con los brillos del tren.
    Un abrazo. Ramón
