There were only a few of these large Train Cathedrals in the Netherlands.. Amsterdam, Groningen and The Hague have simular buildings. Especially the one in Nijmegen is a big loss.

wow, what a revelation Wroclaw is, can't wait to see it in person next week. Hope to also see the masterpiece in Milan. These stations were certainly the cathedrals of the industrial revolution, much like the skyscrapers of today are the symbols of this age. I especially love original surviving ferro-vitreous architecture like Paxton's Crystal Palace (which sdaly burnt down after the war I believe).

I had never thought to read a german word on public streets in Wroclaw again.

Now that is the correct way to modernize a beautiful old railroad station.

Well done!
