EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1854, depicts the Triumphal Arch at Barnstaple-Bridge in celebration of the opening of the North Devon Railway. The arch, adorned with the sign "Success to the N.D. Railway," stands as a testament to the excitement and anticipation that filled the community on this historic day. The scene captures the jubilant atmosphere as the people of the district came together for a day of collective rejoicing. A procession, led by the North Devon Mounted Rifles, made its way through the town's streets. The procession included mayors and town councils from Exeter, Barnstaple, Bideford, Torrington, and Southmolton, as well as the Lodge of Odd Fellows and Freemasons, trades unions, railway directors, magistrates, and gentry of the county. The procession was accompanied by several bands of music, adding to the festive mood. The photograph, published in the "Illustrated London News" in 1854, shows the principal streets of the town, which were spanned by triumphal arches, each one gaily decorated and teeming with thousands of spectators who had come from far and near to witness the arrival of the first train.
