EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the STEAM Museum of the GWR takes us back to a nostalgic moment in time - Trowbridge Station, 1960. The image showcases the majestic Hall class locomotive no. 4909, affectionately known as Blakesley Hall, gracefully approaching the station in Wiltshire. As our eyes wander through this snapshot of history, we are drawn to the intricate details captured within. On the right side of the picture, we catch sight of Trowbridge station's nameboard proudly displaying its identity. Just beyond it stands a charming footbridge that connects both sides of this bustling railway hub. Intriguingly, an advertising board catches our attention by resting next to a porter trolley nearby. It serves as a reminder that even amidst this tranquil scene frozen in time, life was constantly moving forward and evolving. Transporting us back six decades ago, this photograph encapsulates not only the beauty and power of steam locomotives but also offers a glimpse into everyday life at Trowbridge Station during that era. The atmosphere is filled with anticipation and excitement as passengers eagerly await their journeys or bid farewell to loved ones. Preserved for generations to come at STEAM Museum of the GWR, this print allows us to immerse ourselves in an enchanting moment where technology meets human connection on those hallowed platforms at Trowbridge Station in Wiltshire.
