This print takes us back to the 1950s, capturing a mesmerizing view of the turntable at Ilfracombe Engine Shed in Devon. The turntable, prominently showcased in this image, played an essential role in the operation of steam locomotives during that era. Its purpose was simple yet vital - to facilitate the turning of these magnificent machines so they could return on their tracks in the direction from which they had come. Ilfracombe Engine Shed stood as a testament to engineering ingenuity and served as a hub for locomotive maintenance and repair. Nestled within the picturesque landscapes of Devon, it provided an idyllic setting for railway enthusiasts and workers alike. The photograph beautifully captures both the grandeur and functionality of this historic structure.
