EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the National Railway Museum takes us back in time to the West end of the 1902 station at Newmarket. The image showcases a moment frozen in history, where the through lines have been diverted to the south and down platform. The construction of new buildings on site is evident, adding a sense of progress and expansion. The attention to detail in this photograph is remarkable. Every element tells a story - from the majestic steam locomotive that stands proudly on the tracks, ready for its next journey, to the signal box that watches over and guides trains along their routes. The platform itself exudes an air of bustling activity, with passengers eagerly waiting for their train or bidding farewell to loved ones. One cannot help but be drawn into this scene's atmosphere; it feels as though we are standing right there amidst all the excitement and energy of a bygone era. And just off to our right, we catch sight of a charming refreshment room nestled within one of these newly constructed buildings - perhaps offering respite and sustenance for weary travelers. This print serves as both a historical artifact and an invitation to imagine what life was like during this time period. It reminds us of how railways were once at the forefront of transportation innovation, connecting people across vast distances while simultaneously shaping communities around them. As we gaze upon this snapshot from yesteryear, let us appreciate not only its aesthetic beauty but also its significance in preserving our shared heritage.
