EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 1960s, capturing a vibrant scene at Bridgnorth Railway Station. The image was acquired by the Severn Valley Railway Society from British Rail and showcases a London, Midland and Scottish Railway Ivatt Class 2 steam locomotive in action. Numbered as 46443, this magnificent engine is seen departing for Hampton Loade during the renowned Severn Valley steam weekend. The acquisition of this locomotive holds great significance as it was purchased earlier that year from British Rail by Richard Willcox. It marked an exciting addition to the growing fleet of engines on the Severn Valley Railway, solidifying its reputation as a hub for heritage preservation in transport history. Transport enthusiasts will appreciate this snapshot of railway nostalgia, where every detail tells a story. From the bustling station platform to the billowing smoke rising from the steam engine's chimney, one can almost hear the rhythmic chugging sound and feel the excitement in the air. This photograph serves as a testament to both our rich industrial past and our commitment to preserving these historical treasures for future generations. As we gaze upon this remarkable image captured on October 16th, 1967, we are reminded of how railways have shaped our world and continue to captivate hearts with their timeless charm.
