EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Tim McGuinness, we are transported back to the 1990s, a time when steam engines still graced our railway stations. The iconic A4 locomotive Sir Nigel Gresley takes center stage as it prepares to embark on its journey from Newcastle Central Station to Edinburgh on the 29th of April in 1995. The image exudes a sense of nostalgia and wonderment, reminding us of an era where steam engines were not just modes of transport but symbols of power and engineering marvels. With billowing clouds of smoke enveloping the station platform, one can almost hear the rhythmic chugging sound that accompanied these magnificent machines. As Sir Nigel Gresley stands proudly at the forefront, its polished exterior gleaming under the sunlight, it becomes evident why these locomotives held such a special place in people's hearts. They represented an age when travel was more than just reaching a destination; it was an experience filled with anticipation and romance. This photograph encapsulates not only the beauty and grandeur of this particular locomotive but also serves as a reminder of how far transportation has come since then. It invites us to reflect upon our own progress while appreciating the rich history that paved the way for modern-day innovations. Tim McGuinness skillfully captures this moment in time through his lens, allowing us to relive a piece of history that might otherwise have been forgotten. This print is truly a testament to both his talent as a photographer and
