Image of Talavera de la Reina, not of the place itself.

The laying of the railway from Madrid to Cáceres and Portugal reached the city in 1876 and hooked it into the trade of the meseta. The station fixed the growth of the new quarter to the north and served as an outlet for earthenware and cereals.
