EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the charming town of Cirencester in Gloucestershire, circa 1960. The image showcases the historic Cirencester Town Station, a hub of transportation and community for over a century. Nestled amidst picturesque surroundings, this station served as a vital link between Cirencester and the wider world. In this snapshot frozen in time, we see an iconic railbus (W799XX) gracefully parked at the station. This sleek vehicle was not only a symbol of modernity but also represented progress and convenience for travelers during that era. Passengers eagerly awaited their journeys while admiring the architectural beauty of the station building. Speaking of which, it's worth noting that this magnificent structure gained recognition for its historical significance when it was granted Grade II listed status in 1971. Its timeless design stands as a testament to Victorian-era craftsmanship and serves as a reminder of Cirencester's rich railway heritage. Although this beloved station closed its doors in April 1964, leaving behind memories etched into the hearts of locals and visitors alike, photographs like these allow us to relive those bygone days filled with bustling platforms and locomotive adventures. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from STEAM Museum of GWR, let us appreciate both the visual splendor captured within its frame and reflect on how railways have shaped our communities throughout history.
