EDITORS COMMENTS
This photographic postcard transports us back in time to the bustling Running Shed of the Great Western Railway (GWR) at Old Oak Commons around 1908. The intricate network of railways and engineering marvels come alive in this stunning image, as locomotives rest in the protective shelter, their hoods and smokestacks casting intriguing shadows on the ground. The GWR Running Shed was an essential part of the railway's infrastructure, where locomotives underwent routine maintenance and repairs. The shed's large doors open to reveal rows of steam locomotives, each one unique in its design and character. The locomotives, with their powerful engines and intricate details, stand proudly, their hoods adorned with various logos and insignia. The atmosphere in the shed is one of industry and efficiency, with workers busy at work, tending to the engines, making adjustments, and ensuring they are ready for their next journey. The steam engines emit a faint hiss as they release steam, adding to the sense of movement and activity. The Running Shed at Old Oak Commons was a testament to the ingenuity and innovation of the railway industry during the early 20th century. This photograph offers a rare glimpse into the inner workings of the shed, providing us with a fascinating insight into the world of railway engineering and transport history.
