Kew Gardens Station. 1868-70. Photograph 2006 by Jacqueline Banerjee. [This image may be used without prior permission for any scholarly or educational purpose.] According to Wikipedia, "The station buildings are an unusually fine example of mid-Victorian railway architecture." One can see people standing on the platform, but the part on the left is now a pub. The ironwork is very eye-catching, but was it painted like that in the 1870s? [JB]
