EDITORS COMMENTS
West Calder Railway Station, West Lothian, Scotland: A Blast from the Past Step back in time with this photograph of West Calder Railway Station in the 1910s. The image, taken from the platform, captures the hustle and bustle of activity as a steam train approaches. The station, located in the picturesque town of West Calder in Scotland, was a vital transport hub during this era. The platform is filled with people, both men and women, dressed in their finest attire, eagerly awaiting the arrival of the train. Their expressions convey a sense of excitement and anticipation, as they prepare to embark on their journeys. In the foreground, a woman in a long, flowing skirt and a man in a suit and hat can be seen climbing the steps leading up to the platform, no doubt also heading to the train. The train itself looms in the distance, its powerful steam engine belching out plumes of smoke as it makes its way across the bridge and towards the station. The tracks stretch out before it, disappearing into the distance, a testament to the vast network of railways that crisscrossed Scotland during this period. The bridge in the background, with its arched design and ornate detailing, adds to the overall charm and character of the scene. The image is a beautiful snapshot of a bygone era, offering a glimpse into the past and the importance of rail transport during the early 20th century.
