EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the STEAM Museum of the GWR takes us back to St Germans Station in Cornwall, circa 1960. The image showcases a moment frozen in time as an unknown Castle Class locomotive gracefully arrives at the station. St Germans Station, which opened its doors in 1859 along the Cornish Main Line, holds a significant place in history and this photograph beautifully captures its essence. Nestled west of the iconic St Germans Viaduct, this charming railway hub has witnessed countless journeys and stories throughout the years. The scene depicted here is reminiscent of a bygone era when steam trains were still a common sight on our railways. The billowing clouds of smoke and rhythmic chugging sound would have filled the air as passengers eagerly awaited their next adventure or reunion with loved ones. As we gaze upon this evocative snapshot, we can't help but feel transported back to simpler times. It serves as a reminder of how vital these stations were for connecting communities and facilitating travel across vast distances. This print not only captures an exquisite view of St Germans Station but also encapsulates an era that will forever remain etched in our collective memory.
