Following a somewhat random set of links, as one does, I came across this gallery of photos of trains and trams in various parts of the UK around 1950, with a few photo sets from other places in Europe. Lots and lots of photos, a significant fraction of which are in color, showing the trains and the places they went through, all taken by one person (who's now, sixty years later, creating the website).

Just as some random examples, here's the beach in Swansea (1951), the Charing Cross Tube station (1950), and a sightseeing monorail in Barcelona (1956).

(Oh, [livejournal.com profile] kightp, you might also find these stage props he's made interesting.)

What's funny is I'm such a train geek that I was about to click that link before I spotted the note at the bottom.

Yeah, my kind of props guy...
