EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from 1911 showcases the bustling scene at Cambridge Station. In the background, we catch a glimpse of the magnificent passenger station, its grandeur contrasting with the humble Fosters mill standing proudly behind it. However, it is in the foreground where our attention is truly captured. The storage sidings come alive with an array of fascinating sights. Various 10-ton goods brake vans are neatly lined up, their sturdy frames hinting at countless journeys and deliveries made across the country. A travelling gas tank stands tall among them, a testament to innovation and progress in transportation. To the left, six-wheeled carriage stock adds a touch of elegance to this industrial setting. These carriages have witnessed countless stories unfold within their walls as they carried passengers on their adventures near and far. As we take in this snapshot frozen in time, we can almost hear the rhythmic chugging of steam locomotives passing by on nearby tracks. The platform buzzes with activity as people eagerly await their trains or bid farewell to loved ones embarking on new journeys. Preserved by imagination works and now housed at the National Railway Museum (NRM), this remarkable print offers us a window into history—a reminder of how railways shaped our world through transport and connectivity. Let us cherish these memories while respecting that this image should not be used for commercial purposes but rather appreciated for its historical significance alone.
