This print takes us back in time to the enchanting St Germans Station in Cornwall, circa 1960. As we gaze upon this snapshot from the past, we are transported to an era where steam locomotives reigned supreme and train travel was a cherished experience. The image showcases the bustling platforms of St Germans Station, with passengers eagerly awaiting their trains. The charm of this historic station is further accentuated by the presence of a magnificent passenger bridge that gracefully spans across the tracks. This architectural marvel not only adds grandeur to the scene but also serves as a practical means for commuters to access different parts of the station. St Germans Station has been an integral part of Cornwall's transportation network since its opening in 1859 along the Cornish Main Line. Situated west of the iconic St Germans Viaduct, this railway hub has witnessed countless journeys and shared stories over its long history.
