EDITORS COMMENTS
. This lithograph, created by Charles J. Staniland and published in The Graphic on July 15,1893, offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of luxury train travel between England and Scotland. The image showcases the innovative corridor dining-trains introduced by the London and North-Western Railway. In this exquisite print, we are transported to a time when rail travel was not only efficient but also an experience of opulence and sophistication. The grandeur of these first-class dining cars is evident as elegantly dressed passengers enjoy their meals amidst plush surroundings. Impeccably set tables adorned with fine china and silverware create an atmosphere of refined indulgence.
