"Tragic Tales Unfold: A Glimpse into the Small Railway's Dark History" Step back in time to witness the haunting events that unfolded at the small railway stations across the globe. From unexpected deaths to devastating accidents, these captivating colour lithographs bring forth stories of sorrow and chaos. In Astapowo, Russia, Leo Tolstoi met his untimely demise at dawn on a fateful day in the 20th century. The small railway station became a somber setting for bidding farewell to one of literature's greatest minds. Across Ireland, Upton Station witnessed a bloody battle among Sinn Feiners, painting its platforms with tales of political unrest and violence. The echoes of their struggle still resonate through history. Imagine an unimaginable sight as a torpedo overturned a locomotive, shattering lives and dreams. This shocking incident serves as a reminder of how even the most mundane journeys can turn into nightmares. The Ricken Tunnel tragedy in Switzerland left hearts heavy with grief. Amidst picturesque landscapes, this ill-fated event forever scarred those who witnessed it firsthand. Costa Rica experienced its own train disaster immortalized by vibrant colours on lithographs. Lives were lost as chaos engulfed both passengers and rescuers alike – an unforgettable catastrophe etched into memory. Berlin's elevated railway suffered from a great disaster when crashing trains caused countless casualties. The once bustling tracks turned into scenes of devastation and mourning for families torn apart by tragedy. In Saitz, Moravia (Czechoslovakia), horror struck when an unstoppable force entered under the roof of the station without warning or mercy. Chaos reigned supreme amidst shattered glass and crumbling structures captured vividly on lithographs. Witness history being made as two giants clashed for supremacy - train versus airplane. In this mesmerizing clash between old and new technologies depicted in colourful litho prints, innovation collided with tradition high above ground level.
