Karl Karger’s picture of the Northwestern Station is the only known painting to document the interior of a Viennese station from that time. Six large stations were built in the rapidly expanding city during this period. Trains from the Northwestern Station went to the northern and eastern regions of the crownland of Bohemia as well as to Dresden and Berlin. The new railroad network enabled large-scale migration to the city resulting in a rapid increase in Vienna’s population. From Bohemia, for instance, people came to fill the great demand for brickyard laborers and housekeepers in the city. Karger captures such social differences in his crowd of people he depicts gathered in the station concourse.
