EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the c1930s with this print from the STEAM Museum of the GWR. Here, we witness a remarkable convergence of transportation history as King George V, a majestic King class locomotive number 6000, takes center stage at Plymouth's Millbay Docks in Devon. The sheer power and elegance exuded by this steam engine is truly awe-inspiring. But what makes this image even more intriguing is its juxtaposition with a Western National bus, standing proudly alongside the mighty locomotive. During the 1930s, Western National took over the bus routes previously operated by GWR. This harmonious coexistence between rail and road transport symbolizes an era of transition and progress. As our gaze wanders through this snapshot frozen in time, we are transported to Soap Street – an area that has since evolved into something entirely different. It serves as a poignant reminder that cities are constantly evolving landscapes shaped by innovation and changing needs. This print not only captures two iconic modes of transportation but also encapsulates an entire era marked by technological advancements and societal shifts. It invites us to reflect on how far we have come while appreciating the rich heritage left behind by these magnificent machines.
