EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the essence of a bygone era, as a steam rail motor chugs its way into Penzance Station in Cornwall around 1915. The Cornish Main Line, which terminates at this historic station, opened in 1852 and holds the distinction of being the southernmost station in England. The steam rail motor, a popular mode of transportation during the 1910s, is seen here approaching the station with a plume of smoke billowing from its stack, leaving a trail of steam in its wake. The station, with its red-brick façade and ornate ironwork, stands proudly in the background, a testament to the grandeur of the Victorian era. Penzance Station, with its rich history and picturesque location, has long been a favorite among rail enthusiasts and tourists alike. The station's proximity to the sea and the beautiful Cornish countryside has made it a popular destination for travelers seeking a relaxing getaway. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when steam trains ruled the rails and the journey was as much a part of the experience as the destination itself. The steam rail motor, with its powerful engine and distinctive hiss, represents a time when travel was a more leisurely affair, when the journey was an adventure in and of itself.
