The title names a new passenger station in Cincinnati, Ohio, a city that became a major rail hub in the nineteenth century as several lines converged on the Ohio River. Lithographs like this were often commissioned by railroad companies, civic boosters, or businesses that wanted to show off new buildings to the public. The shelflist card credits the print to Krebs Lith. Co., which suggests a commercial printing shop, though the card carries no date, so the year of construction and printing remains unconfirmed. The picture is still useful for seeing how railroad architecture was presented to the public at the time.
