An aerial view looks down on a rail yard where several parallel tracks carry lines of freight wagons past low industrial sheds and two tall factory chimneys. Behind the yard, half a dozen long high-rise apartment slabs of eight to ten storeys stand in parallel rows, one still ringed by what appears to be scaffolding, surrounded by older, lower rooftops spreading toward the horizon. A construction site with stacked materials occupies open ground in the foreground.
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.
