I recently purchased the attached photo from an internet auction site. It is very interesting and the description said it showed CIWL stock at a station in Eastern Europe, apparently taken in 1935. What I would really like to know is the location, or even in which country this scene is. The station architecture looks Russian to me, but WL had no services in the USSR (as it then was) so somewhere in the former Tsarist empire outside Russia might be the location, suggesting perhaps one of the Baltic States or Poland. Perhaps the porters' rather distinctive caps and uniforms could identify the railway administration involved. I have tried to enlarge the coach destination plate but the image is too grainy to show this with any clarity.
Any information would be very welcome.
