EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the STEAM Museum of the GWR takes us back to the early 1900s, capturing a moment in time at Ashley Hill Station. The focal point of the image is an impressive 0-6-0 saddle tank locomotive, proudly displaying its number - 1874. As it prepares to depart for Bristol Temple Meads, steam billows from its chimney, creating an atmosphere of anticipation and excitement. The station itself exudes a sense of charm with its quaint architecture and bustling activity. A group of onlookers has gathered on the embankment nearby, eagerly observing the comings and goings of trains. Their presence adds a human touch to this snapshot from history. Ashley Hill Station served as a vital transportation hub connecting Bristol with other destinations during this era. This photograph not only captures a specific locomotive but also provides insight into how people interacted with railway stations at that time. Preserved through time, this print offers us a glimpse into an age when steam-powered locomotives were at their peak and rail travel was transforming society. It serves as a reminder of our rich industrial heritage and ignites curiosity about what life was like during those bygone days. As we admire this piece from the STEAM Museum's collection, let our imaginations wander back to c. 1900 when Ashley Hill Station thrived as part of Britain's vibrant railway network.
