EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning watercolour painting captures the majesty and power of GWR Castle Class No. 7017, affectionately named "G.J. Churchward," as it leads a Cornish express train over the iconic Royal Albert Bridge across the River Tamar. Painted by renowned artist Alan Anderson, this exquisite work of art transports us back in time to the golden age of steam rail travel in Britain. The Castle Class locomotives, designed by George James Churchward in 1923, were a significant improvement over their predecessors, with increased power and efficiency. No. 7017, in particular, was known for its distinctive appearance, featuring a large Belpaire firebox and a distinctive domeless boiler. As the train crosses the Royal Albert Bridge, the River Tamar flows calmly below, reflecting the vibrant colours of the steam train and the surrounding landscape. The bridge, designed by Isambard Kingdom Brunel, is an engineering marvel, spanning the River Tamar and connecting Cornwall with Devon. The Cornish express train, with its gleaming carriages and billowing steam, cuts an impressive figure against the backdrop of the Cornish countryside. The painting captures the sense of excitement and anticipation that came with travelling by steam train during this era, as well as the raw power and beauty of the locomotive and the engineering marvels that made such journeys possible. Alan Anderson's meticulous attention to detail and mastery of watercolour techniques bring this scene to life, creating a work of art that is as much a tribute to the history of rail travel as it is a beautiful piece of art in its own right.
