EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: A Journey Back in Time: Swindon Station Staircase to Platforms 1, 2 & 3 (1970) 2.. Step back in time with this evocative photograph of Swindon Station's staircase, taken on the 28th of January 1970. This image captures a moment in history when the station, located in Swindon, Wiltshire, was a bustling hub of railway activity. The image showcases the intricate details of the station's interior, with its tiled walls, wrought iron railings, and the worn-out steps leading to Platforms 1, 2, and 3. Swindon Junction, as it was then known, was a significant railway station on the Great Western Main Line, connecting the south-west of England to the rest of the country. The station's staircase, with its elegant design and worn-out steps, was a testament to the countless footsteps that had traversed it over the years. The station's interior, with its high ceilings, large windows, and ornate details, exudes an air of grandeur and sophistication. The photograph transports us back to the 1970s, an era when train travel was the primary mode of transportation for long-distance journeys. The station's hustle and bustle, the sound of announcements, and the clatter of trains coming and going, all add to the nostalgic charm of this image. This photograph is a precious reminder of Swindon Station's rich history and the role it played in connecting people and communities across the country. It is a snapshot of a bygone era, a time when travel was an adventure, and every journey began with a step up the station stairs. The STEAM Museum of the GWR is proud to preserve and share images like this one, allowing us to explore and appreciate the history of the Great Western Railway and the role it played in shaping our transportation landscape.
