A sepia postcard shows a large group of railway staff and other officials posed in two ranks along the platform of the railway station, some in dark uniforms and peaked caps and others in pale summer dress. Freight wagons stand at the far end of the platform under the station's long awning.
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.
