EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent Bristol Temple Meads Station in approximately 1900. The facade of this iconic transportation hub is truly a sight to behold, with its impressive 1870s station extension towering over the bustling crowd below. As people make their way through the main entrance, horse-drawn carts add an old-world charm to the scene. The focal point of this architectural masterpiece is undoubtedly the tower, which once boasted a majestic spire that unfortunately fell victim to World War II destruction. Despite its absence, the tower still stands tall and proud, serving as a reminder of the station's rich history and resilience. Stepping into this photograph feels like stepping back in time, immersing oneself in an era when steam locomotives ruled the railways. The hustle and bustle captured within these frames evoke a sense of excitement and anticipation as passengers embark on their journeys or reunite with loved ones. Preserved by STEAM Museum of GWR (Great Western Railway), this print offers us a glimpse into Bristol's past—a testament to both human ingenuity and perseverance. It serves as a poignant reminder that even amidst adversity, landmarks like Bristol Temple Meads Station continue to stand strong, connecting generations across time and space.
