EDITORS COMMENTS
Braintree Station, a Glimpse into the Past: Journeying back to 1911, this print captures the essence of Braintree Station in all its glory. The scene unfolds as we look westward, with the magnificent main station building taking center stage. Its grand architecture stands as a testament to an era when railway stations were not only functional but also awe-inspiring architectural marvels. Intriguing details emerge upon closer inspection; a signal box perched on the Witham platform, silently guiding trains along their tracks. A Great Eastern Railway horse box rests in the dock nearby, serving as a reminder of bygone times when horses played an essential role in transportation. The photograph reveals more than just passenger facilities; it unveils glimpses of industry and commerce too. To the far right lies a private siding leading to both brickworks and coal depot – vital components that fueled progress during that era. Notably, our eyes are drawn towards the left side where a 45 turntable proudly sits amidst steam locomotives ready for action. This mechanical wonder symbolizes both power and precision - elements that defined rail travel during those transformative years. Preserved within National Railway Museum's archives, this evocative image from Sep13 offers us an opportunity to step back in time and appreciate how railways shaped our world. Let us cherish this snapshot from history while celebrating the ingenuity and perseverance of those who built our modern transport system.
