The image captures a moment frozen in history, showcasing the birth of modern transportation as we know it today. In this snapshot, our eyes are drawn to the Metropolitan Railway, an iconic symbol of progress during the Victorian era. Steam-powered trains chug along the tracks, their engines billowing smoke into the air. The architectural marvels of bridges and tunnels stand tall against a backdrop of grand Victorian buildings.
