Tudor Style Rural Train Station and Railroad Crossing

1844–77

Not on view

We are shown a country train station with half-timbered walls and a small entrance porch. At right, a gate has been lowered across the road, and a horse and dismounted rider wait behind it. A signal man holds a white flag next to the track, as a train approaches from the left through a tunnel. This drawing is similar in style to "Victorian Rural Train Station" (2018.839.9) which is signed "J. C. [...ell] Ogle"
