EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, the Duke of Edinburgh, Prince Albert Victor, bids farewell to the vibrant crowds of Pabal Station in India as he embarks on a journey aboard the Great Indian Peninsular Railway in the year 1870. The Duke, who was the second in line to the British throne at the time, is shown standing on the platform, waving to the throngs of people who have gathered to catch a glimpse of the royal figure. The station, adorned with an array of colorful flags, is a testament to the excitement and enthusiasm that surrounded the Duke's visit to the Indian subcontinent. The Great Indian Peninsular Railway, a marvel of transportation engineering at the time, had only recently been completed, connecting the southern and western regions of India. The Duke's visit was a significant event in the history of the railway, marking its official inauguration and solidifying its importance as a vital link in the British colonial infrastructure. The photograph captures the essence of the era, with the Duke's impeccable attire and the ornate flags fluttering in the wind, creating a striking contrast against the backdrop of the bustling Indian railway station. The image offers a glimpse into the rich history of transportation in India and the profound impact that the arrival of the railways had on the country's people and culture. This photograph, taken in 1870, is a poignant reminder of the Duke of Edinburgh's historic visit to India and the role that the Great Indian Peninsular Railway played in shaping the transport landscape of the subcontinent.
