EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the STEAM Museum of the GWR takes us back to Lostwithiel Station in Cornwall, September 1956. The image captures a moment frozen in time, allowing us to glimpse into the past and witness the bustling activity that once filled this now-closed station. In this snapshot, our eyes are drawn to the goods shed on the right side of the picture. Its sturdy structure stands as a testament to an era when railways played a vital role in transporting goods across the country. It serves as a reminder of Lostwithiel's importance as a hub for trade and commerce during its operational years. The station itself exudes charm with its traditional architecture and vintage signage. The signals scattered throughout hint at an intricate network that ensured trains arrived and departed safely. It is fascinating to imagine passengers eagerly awaiting their journeys or bidding farewell to loved ones on these very platforms. Lostwithiel Station opened its doors in 1859 but sadly closed down in 1964, leaving behind memories etched within these walls forevermore. This photograph allows us to appreciate not only its historical significance but also marvel at how much has changed since then. As we gaze upon this evocative scene, we can't help but be transported back to those bygone days where steam engines chugged along these tracks, connecting people and places with each rhythmic beat of their wheels.
