EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the year 1911, capturing the essence of Newmarket's through station. Built in 1902, this historical gem stands tall as a testament to the golden age of railways. The image is taken from the east end of the platform, offering a unique perspective on this bustling transportation hub. At first glance, our eyes are drawn towards the magnificent steam locomotive that dominates the foreground. Its billowing smoke adds an air of nostalgia and excitement to the scene. As we follow its tracks into the distance, we catch sight of cattle pens nestled amidst green fields - a reminder that Newmarket was not only a vital transport link but also played a role in livestock transportation. The station signal box at the end of the platform stands as a silent guardian overseeing all train movements with precision and expertise. It serves as a symbol of safety and efficiency during an era when technology was rapidly advancing. Imagination works wonders when looking at this photograph; it transports us back over a century ago, allowing us to witness firsthand how people traveled and connected with one another. This remarkable piece from National Railway Museum captures not just infrastructure but also emotions - anticipation for journeys ahead, farewells said or reunions celebrated on these very platforms
