Item Information

Title:
Voyageurs appréciant de moins en moins les wagons de troisième classe, pendant l'hiver.
Title (alt.):
Travellers showing less and less appreciation for travelling in third class during the winter period.. Charivari
Description:
Passengers riding in third-class cars are showing less and less appreciation for traveling in winter. Railway travel in the third class compartments was rather tedious, especially in winter. While these trains already had the luxury of a roof, there still were no windows or heating. As one can see in this print, the snow flakes easily fell inside the wagons and forced the travelers to sit closely together for protection against the icy wind.
