EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the golden age of railways, capturing the essence of a bygone era. The poster advertising the National Railway Museum in York showcases an exquisite artwork by Peter Cybulski that pays homage to some iconic elements of railway history. At the center stage, we are greeted by the majestic Mallard locomotive, a true legend in its own right. This record-breaking steam engine holds the world speed record for steam traction and stands as a symbol of engineering prowess and innovation. Its sleek design and powerful presence evoke a sense of awe and admiration. Adjacent to Mallard, we find another marvel from British Rail's fleet - an Advanced Passenger Train (APT). This futuristic train represents cutting-edge technology at its finest, showcasing Britain's commitment to pushing boundaries in rail travel during that time. The Great Northern summersault signal adds a touch of nostalgia to this composition. A relic from yesteryears, it reminds us of simpler times when signals were operated manually with precision and care. Lastly, nestled amidst these remarkable elements is a humble piece of railway track. It serves as a reminder that all these magnificent machines relied on well-laid tracks for their smooth journey across vast landscapes. Through this evocative artwork captured on this print from National Railway Museum's Pictorial Collection, we are transported into an enchanting world where trains reigned supreme and captivated hearts with their power and grace.
