The same streamlined railcar stands on the tracks, seen now from further back on the platform with the full station facade in view, its sign reading Novi Sad in Cyrillic and Latin. A crowd of men in suits and hats, along with at least one uniformed soldier, gathers to inspect the new railcar. The donor identifies it as a Ganz-built Arpad-series motor coach.
About this place
The first station in Novi Sad, built in 1882 on the site of today's Liman market. The first train reached the city on 5 March 1883 from Subotica, and the line onward to Zemun opened that December. When the railway was moved north to make room for the growing city the station was demolished, and only its former post office building survives. Postcards of it are captioned Vasutallomas in Hungarian and Eisenbahnstation in German.
On the card
НОВИ САД NOVI SAD
The station's own name across the front of the building, in Serbian Cyrillic and then in Latin script.
