Summary edit

Description
English: "People waiting outside railway station with train and mountain in the background"


To juxtapose our recent Salthill shot, we countered with another shot from the Dillon family holiday album - this time clearly "out foreign". Other shots in the series were labelled to indicate an Alpine holiday - possibly in the Brunig pass in Switzerland. But we hadn't confirmed specifically.

Not only have we confirmed the location (as Brunig Station in Switzerland), but we now have a confirmed date (27 July 1901), and could even likely identify the train that is pictured from the 1901 timetable sourced by [/photos/129555378@N07/ sharon.corbet]

Given the incredible "person identified" work of late, and the discussion below, the odds are shortening on even identifying the main subjects!
