Abandoned Train Stations by David Ross

 I find abandoned places intriguing, so this book was perfect for me. Divided into continents, it presents a wide range of abandoned station buildings and station features. Although many are desolate, overgrown with weeds, and perhaps haunted, there are some extremely attractive buildings and some of the stations are set in stunning surroundings, especially in Europe, New Zealand and Canada. Some are quite surprising, such as one in the style of a French chateau in China, and one owned by an Indian prince. They are all worth seeing. Some are still extremely grand, such as the huge Art Nouveau Canfranc built by fascists in Spain in 1928 and the centre of several intrigues and spy dramas during World War Two. This is going to be converted into a grand hotel

I received this free ebook from NetGalley in return for an honest review.
