Railway Art Group 1

Railway 200 is a celebration of the 200th anniversary of the opening of the Stockton and Darlington Railway on 27th September 1825, the world’s first public passenger service.

A group of experts for Art UK nominated 20 works of railway art, and selected their finest. So I thought we would like to do the same, as the big day of 27th September approaches. There will be 4 groups of 5 images, and then on Sunday 28th we will vote for our 4 finalists.

Here is Group 1

Note: There is a poll embedded within this post, please visit the site to participate in this post’s poll.
