Jon Searles' photos with the keyword: canopy

This was the scene on Monday morning, with powdered snow still swirling around. The temperature stayed very low for a very long time, days and days. At one point it supposedly got down to -26 Celsius, although not for a long time (this figure may have been taken outside Prague).

I call this a "canopy" for want of a better word. I'm really not clear on what else I could call it. It's not a trainshed, in the traditional sense, because the trains pull up to a waiting area covered by it, but don't go under it. It's also too lightly constructed to really be considered completely a part of the Masarykovo station building, and indeed it isn't original, if you look at old prints from the 1840s.

Here's the glass roof of the Masarykovo station canopy, similar to many other stations, even if it isn't the grandest.
