EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the STEAM Museum of the GWR showcases a nostalgic view of Purton Station in Wiltshire. The image captures the essence of a bygone era, with its charming steps leading up to a road bridge. As we gaze upon this snapshot, our eyes are drawn to the nameboard proudly displaying "Purton Station" evoking memories of bustling train platforms and eager travelers. The mid-20th century station building stands prominently in the frame, its overhanging roof providing shelter for passengers during inclement weather. This architectural feature adds character to an already picturesque scene, reminding us of simpler times when train travel was at its peak. Opening its doors in 1841, Purton Station served as a vital transportation hub for locals and visitors alike until it closed in 1964. This photograph transports us back to an era where steam engines chugged along these tracks and filled the air with their distinctive sounds and scents. As we reflect on this piece of history frozen in time, we can't help but appreciate how photography allows us to capture moments that would otherwise fade away into oblivion. This print serves as both a reminder and homage to Purton Station's significance within Wiltshire's rich heritage.
