EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the National Railway Museum takes us back in time to a momentous day in railway history. Captured by the talented photographer Maurice Earley, it showcases the majestic London, Midland and Scottish Railway 4-6-0 Jubilee class steam locomotive No 5568 Western Australia as it approaches Ais Gill summit on the Settle and Carlisle line. The year is 1939, and this iconic image freezes a significant moment - precisely at 1:47 pm on July 27th. The sheer power of this magnificent locomotive is evident as it propels forward with determination and grace. The billowing clouds of steam enveloping its sleek frame add an air of mystique to the scene. Against a backdrop of rolling hills and lush greenery, one can almost feel the energy emanating from this engineering marvel. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported to an era when rail travel was not merely a means of transportation but an experience filled with wonderment and excitement. It serves as a reminder of how railways connected people across vast distances while simultaneously showcasing technological progress. Maurice Earley's expert composition allows us to appreciate both the grandeur of nature surrounding Ais Gill summit and the intricate details that make up this impressive locomotive. This print stands as a testament to our rich railway heritage - capturing not only a specific moment in time but also preserving memories for generations to come.
