Scope and Contents

From the Collection: The collection contains over 140 original plans, most in ink on waxed architect's paper, variously sized (ranging from approximately 18" x 21" to approximately 31" x 42", mostly tending towards the larger sizes), for railroad stations and their associated buildings in a wide variety of cities and towns in Kentucky, Tennessee, Alabama, Louisiana, Georgia, Mississippi, Florida, and a few in Illinois and Indiana. The plans are mostly stylistically consistent measured drawings, drafted in the prevailing conventions of the day, and show facades of stations, interior details, waiting rooms, privies, crossing signs, telegraph offices, train sheds, decorative plaster work, etc. Many of the plans are annotated, some are dated, and many originate from the home office in Louisville. ~~ from dealer's catalog
