Paris Rouge LXIX - En Voiture!!


Gare de Lyon

Monsieur Google was kind enough to translate this.  We all know that as available as he is, he can be a titch "off the mark". I welcome corrections for "All Aboard!"  

My thanks to Véronique who so  kindly corrected the title for me. I've made the change!

    "En voiture, Mesdames et Messieurs, en voiture!" ;-) Glad to be of assistance, and another great shot, by the way! Veronique - French Girl in Seattle

    A rather subtle rouge treatment. What a beauty, V!

    Tut! Tut! Did the security man chat you up? I tried to take photographs at Gare du Nord in the style of Monet as I waited for the train to his gardens. But the security man wished a moment of my time.

    Julie, nobody stopped me this day. I think I'm blessed, I"ve taken photos a lot of places that later I found out were prohibited.

    Merci Veronique for advising on the translation. I shied away from t hat one because "voiture" means car but now I see it can mean train car. I will change my title!

    The red is so brilliant. This must be where French Henri Pottérs to go to L'école de Cochon-verroux!

    the roof reminds me of the Stillwell Avenue elevated subway stop in Brooklyn/Coney Is.

    You're welcome, Virginia! I agree with Paris Paul: This picture does remind me of Harry Potter (I am a big Harry Potter fan!) ;-) Wonder if they have a Platform 9 3/4 there? Veronique (French Girl in Seattle)

    I've taken photos at nearly all the train stations in Paris and never had a problem. I love riding the trains in Europe.

    The ironwork structure is wonderful, and it was very kind of them to repaint the columns to rouge for you. Nice shot.

    There's something so romantic about train travel—and even more so in Europe! Wonderful shot, V.

    I am a big HP fan and that was my first thought in seeing your shot... Station 9 3/4 must be nearby! Beautiful shot, V.
