EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable transformation of the line OP04913, as a majestic Star Class steam locomotive gracefully passes along a section of the South Devon and Tavistock Railway. The view captured in this image possibly gazes southwest, revealing a picturesque stretch of track located east of Plymouth near Crabtree or Marsh Mills, nestled alongside the serene River Plym. Part of Historic England's Early Photographic Print Collection, this photograph offers a glimpse into an era when railway engineering was at its zenith. The date remains uncertain, adding an air of mystery to this historical snapshot. The sheer power and elegance exuded by the steam locomotive is truly awe-inspiring.
