EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historic moment of the Opening Ceremony of the Railway Terminus in Citta Vecchia, Malta, in 1883. Taken by an English photographer from the 19th century, this image is now part of a private collection. The Malta Railway was a single line that connected Valletta, the capital city, with Mdina (also known as Citta Vecchia or Notabile). On February 28,1883, amidst great anticipation and excitement, this railway line was officially inaugurated. The photograph showcases a landscape filled with people eagerly awaiting the arrival of steam-powered locomotives. Intriguingly British Empire-themed elements are present throughout the scene; from British spectators to colonial-era rail infrastructure. The crowds gathered reflect both Maltese locals and visitors who came to witness this significant event in transportation history. The image beautifully captures not only the grandeur of the opening ceremony but also provides us with a glimpse into daily life during that era. It serves as a testament to progress and innovation within transport systems at that time. This photograph offers viewers an opportunity to travel back in time and experience firsthand what it must have been like on that momentous day. It stands as a remarkable piece of historical documentation showcasing how railways played an essential role in connecting communities while shaping societies across different parts of the world.
