EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the year 1911, at Bishops Stortford station. The image captures a picturesque scene as we look south from the station platform. On the right-hand side, we see the granary siding, with its towering structure adding a sense of industrial charm to the landscape. In the center-right of the frame, Station Road overbridge stands tall, providing a gateway between two worlds - one bustling with railway activity and another filled with everyday life. Through this bridge peeks the North signal box, reminding us of the meticulous coordination required for smooth train operations. Our eyes are drawn to three distinct tracks that stretch into infinity. To our left is Dunmow line's track, hinting at distant destinations waiting to be explored. In contrast, dominating the center is an up-and-down main track where steam locomotives tirelessly transport passengers and goods alike. The photo also offers glimpses of other elements that make up this vibrant railway ecosystem. At far right stands a sturdy goods shed - witness to countless stories of trade and commerce. As we admire this snapshot frozen in time, it sparks our imagination about what life was like during those days when steam trains ruled supreme. This remarkable piece from National Railway Museum allows us to appreciate not only the technical marvels but also how railways have shaped communities and connected people across generations.
