Transformations of the Prague railway junction in the 20th and 21st centuries

How did the Prague railway hub evolve from a disparate network of lines and stations into the system we see today? Petr Lapáček charts its transformation from the early 20th century to the modernisations of the present day. He details the reconstruction of the Main, Smíchov, and Masaryk stations, the building of bridges, tunnels, and connecting lines, the electrification process, the Holešovice diversion, and the New Connection project. The technically precise and engaging text is complemented by unique archival and contemporary photographs, maps, plans, and diagrams. This book will delight all fans of railway engineering and transport.
