Tot het rode licht gedoofd is - Overwegen in Nederland toen en nu
When the first railway lines were built in the Netherlands, there was already a large network of paved and unpaved roads, which were important for the local and inter-local transport of people and goods and over which stagecoaches, drawn by two or three horses, maintained services between the larger towns in the country. It was inevitable that the constructed railway lines would cross such a road here and there, thus entailing great dangers. The motto was: wait until the red light has gone out. And in fact that is still the case today, despite the safety requirements for which increasingly higher demands were made over the years.
This book shows a large number of railway crossings in beautiful photographs, from the end of the 19th century to the present. From busy level crossings in the big city, fascinating meeting places of train and road traffic and therefore unique images of the times, to remote level crossings in the countryside, where time seems to have stood still. But how long will that last?
"Tot het rode licht gedoofd is" (Until the red light is extinguished) is a visual history of a disappearing phenomenon: the railway crossing.
