Eisenbahnen sind nur etwa ein Jahrzehnt älter als der Fotoapparat und so fast von Anbeginn auf Bildern festgehalten. Die Geburtsstätte des Transportmittels Eisenbahn ist Großbritannien. Hier wurde erfunden und weiterentwickelt. Das größte britische Fotoarchiv, Getty Images, besitzt eine Sammlung von Eisenbahnaufnahmen aus dem In-, und Ausland. Mit diesen Bildern hat Cole ihre Geschichte der Eisenbahn illustriert. Von den fauchenden Ungeheuern der frühen viktorianischen Zeit mit Schornsteinen wie Zylinderhüten über die Blütezeit der Dampflokomotive im 19. Jahrhundert, die Ära zweier Weltkriege und die Konkurrenz des Straßenverkehrs bis hin zur Epoche der Diesel- und Elektrozüge. Die Aufnahmen zeigen mächtige Maschinen in voller Fahrt, oft in atemberaubenden Landschaften, aber auch belebte Bahnhöfe, verkehrsreiche Städte sowie die Lokomotivschuppen und Werkstätten. (Text dt., engl., frz., H. F. Ullmann) 25,5 x 22,5 cm, 343 S., zahlreiche Abb., geb.

Koln : Konemann ; Princes Risborough : John Wilson, Distributor, 2001. First Edition. Hardcover. An exceptional copy; fine in an equally fine dw, now mylar-sleeved. Particularly and surprisingly well-preserved; tight, bright, clean and especially sharp-cornered. Literally as new.; 343 pages; Physical desc. : 343 p. : chiefly Ill. ; 27 x 31 cm. German and French texts translated from the English. Includes index. Subject: Railroads --History --Pictorial works --Railroad engineering --History --Pictorial works --Transportation. Summary: Trains - The Early Years offers an original view of the first century or so of railways and trains, reflecting the early influence of Stephenson's Rocket in England, through two world wars, prosperity, depression, resistance and acceptance to the middle of the 20th century. Railways arrived only a decade or so before the camera, and have been captured in pictures throughout their history. This means of transport was pioneered and developed in Britain and so the greatest British photo archive, ""Getty Images"", has a remarkable collection of photographs of trains both from this country and around the world. Beverley Cole has drawn on these to illustrate their story from the early Victorian days of broad gauge and engine funnels like the tall top hats of the period, through the heyday of steam in the late 19th century, the threats and challenges of two world wars and from road transport, to the era of diesel and high-tech electric. Here are spectacular line-side photos of powerful engines in action in some of the most desolate and arresting landscapes, as well as scenes in crowded stations, bustling cities and locomotive works.
