EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to St Agnes Station, Cornwall, circa 1910. The image beautifully captures the essence of early 20th-century railway travel, showcasing a steam rail motor resting gracefully within the station. St Agnes Station was an integral part of the Truro and Newquay Railway, opening its doors to eager passengers in July 1903. This bustling hub served as a vital link between Truro and Newquay, connecting communities and facilitating trade throughout Cornwall. The photograph exudes a sense of nostalgia as we witness this snapshot from over a century ago. The station's architecture reflects the charm of that era with its quaint design and meticulous attention to detail. Passengers would have eagerly awaited their trains on these very platforms, filled with anticipation for their journeys ahead. Sadly, like many other stations across the country during that period of change in transportation systems, St Agnes Station closed its doors for good in 1963. However, through this remarkable print preserved at STEAM Museum of the GWR (Great Western Railway), we can still appreciate its historical significance today. As we gaze upon this image frozen in time, it serves as a reminder not only of our rich railway heritage but also how far we have come since then. It invites us to reflect on how transportation has evolved over the years while cherishing those moments when steam-powered locomotives once ruled our tracks.
