Pedestrians climb the station stairs, Berlin 1932

Pedestrians in period dress climb a stairway at a Berlin station during the morning rush hour, a recurring motif of the dense commuter traffic on the Stadtbahn. The repeated images of stairs, platforms, and flowing crowds highlight how central public transport had become to daily life in the German capital at the close of the Weimar Republic.
