EDITORS COMMENTS
This image presents a bird's-eye view of the proposed Central Railway Terminus for the city of London, as envisioned in 1846. The meticulously planned railway station was intended to revolutionize the transportation landscape of the bustling metropolis. The photograph showcases Old Bailey, a historic area known for its criminal courts, situated to the left of the frame. The marketplace on Old Bailey is visible, with its vibrant stalls and the crowd of people milling about. To the right, Ludgate Hill rises, its steep incline a challenge for the horses and carts that navigated the city's streets. At the heart of the scene is the proposed railway terminus, with its impressive new viaduct, later named Holborn Viaduct, stretching out towards the horizon. The viaduct was a marvel of engineering, designed to carry the railway over the busy streets of London and connect the city with its suburbs. The station itself, though not yet built, is imagined as a grand architectural feat, with its expansive layout and intricate details. Beyond the viaduct, the image hints at the expansive potential of the railway network, with trains winding their way through the city and beyond. The birds-eye perspective offers a unique vantage point, allowing us to appreciate the intricate details of the proposed design and the broader impact it would have on London's urban fabric. This photograph is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse of the city's transportation history and the ambitious plans that shaped its future.
