EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back in time to the year 1911, offering a mesmerizing view into Sudbury Station from the South. Taken from the steps of a public footbridge, this image captures the essence of an era long gone. The main buildings and station master's house stand proudly on the up side at the right-hand side of the frame, exuding an air of grandeur. On the left, we catch a glimpse of permanent way department sheds, adding to the industrial charm of this railway hub. Intriguingly, our attention is drawn to a siding that leads all the way to an expansive loading dock in the foreground. The ground signal controlling movement out is cleverly designed with protection against being struck by hand barrows - a testament to meticulous engineering even in those early days. Imagination works its magic as we envision steam locomotives chugging along these tracks towards their destinations. The platform stands ready for passengers eagerly awaiting their trains while signals silently communicate with each other across distances. This remarkable print now finds its place among countless treasures at National Railway Museum (NRM), where it serves as a window into history for all who visit. Let yourself be transported back in time as you explore this snapshot frozen forever in sepia tones – a true testament to human ingenuity and progress in transport technology.
