<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/en:Berlin_Friedrichstra%C3%9Fe_station" class="extiw" title="w:en:Berlin Friedrichstraße station">Berlin Friedrichstraße station</a>: the prospective train shed; view east towards Friedrichstraße. The engraving is a copy, enlivened with <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Staffage" class="extiw" title="en:Staffage">staffage</a> figures, of the original architectural drawing published 1885. The name of the station, <i>Friedrichstrasse,</i> was originally displayed on the <a href="//commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Berlin_Schluetersteg_Ansicht_BusB_retouched.jpg" title="File:Berlin Schluetersteg Ansicht BusB retouched.jpg">West-</a> and <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://architekturmuseum.ub.tu-berlin.de/index.php?set=1&amp;p=79&amp;Daten=207990">East-façade</a> but the inscription had been removed by 1898, provided the <a href="//commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Bahnhof_Friedrichstra%C3%9Fe,_1898.jpg" title="File:Bahnhof Friedrichstraße, 1898.jpg"> photograph of  the East-façade by Titzenthaler</a> is dated  correctly. Seen from the inside of the hall the writing would appear not as shown in the engraving but in mirror writing.
