EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling Reading Station in 1967, offering a glimpse into the past. From the vantage point on the south west side, we are presented with a mesmerizing view of this historic railway hub in Berkshire. The station building stands tall and proud, exuding an air of grandeur that is characteristic of its era. In this snapshot frozen in time, we see numerous cars and delivery vehicles lined up along the front of the station building. These automobiles represent a diverse range of makes and models from that period, each adding their own touch to this nostalgic scene. It's fascinating to observe how transportation has evolved over the years. The atmosphere captured within this image is one filled with anticipation and movement. Passengers scurry about, eager to catch their trains or reunite with loved ones arriving at this important transport junction. The hustle and bustle surrounding Reading Station during this era truly comes alive through this photograph. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from STEAM Museum of GWR (Great Western Railway), it serves as a powerful reminder of how railways have shaped our lives throughout history. This particular moment frozen in time allows us to reflect on not only the physical changes that have occurred but also on how travel itself has transformed since those days gone by.
