I particularly enjoyed this image of a 19th century Hansom Cab, waiting outside Greenwich station in London. Notice the "First Class Ladies Waiting Rooms" in the background.

The photo itself isn't of any great merit, artistically, but even simple photographs from the 19th century can say so much about how our ancestors lived.
