If you search Google Images for Train Stations 1940 they have quite a few pic on there which may be able to help you. Good luck :)

Answer 2

Sounds like an interesting project. I wish I could help you and I do have many pictures during the 1940 period but they are of people and not what you are looking for. Good luck though and just an idea but you could always go to the Library and pull up newspaper pictures of the period.

Answer 3

Go to some auctions like Yahoo and look at the old post cards.
