Collation, at the Opening of the Norwegian Trunk Railway, 1854. Creator: Unknown

Collation, at the Opening of the Norwegian Trunk Railway, 1854. Celebration at Eidsvoll of a new railway line designed by British civil engineer Robert Stephenson. This short but important line, which promises results momentous to the material interests of a large portion of our Scandinavian brethren, has recently been opened under circumstances most auspicious in themselves and suggestive of beneficial results within a period more brief than could have been hoped for by the most sanguine...At Eidsvold the company - ministers and high officials, &c. to the number of 300 [including Robert Stephenson and fellow engineer George Parker Bidder] - partook of a cold collation...'. From "Illustrated London News", 1854
