EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of The Tunbridge Wells and Hastings Railway, an iconic piece of history. The engraving, created by Samuel Read in 1852, showcases the remarkable architecture and topography surrounding this railway line. The image takes us on a journey through time, transporting us to a bygone era when steam locomotives ruled the tracks. We can almost hear the rhythmic chugging of the train as it passes through Etchingham Station and Battle Station, two significant stops along this historic route. The attention to detail in this engraving is truly remarkable. From the intricate design of Wadhurst Tunnel to the grandeur of each railway station depicted, every element has been meticulously captured by Read's skilled hand. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of how railways have shaped our world. They not only connected towns and cities but also brought people together from different walks of life. The Tunbridge Wells and Hastings Railway was undoubtedly a lifeline for those who relied on it for transportation or simply sought adventure beyond their own horizons. This print serves as a testament to human ingenuity and perseverance. It immortalizes an important chapter in our history while also inviting us to reflect on how far we have come since then.
