EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the year 1966, capturing a timeless scene at Garsdale Railway Station in Cumbria. The lens of photographer Gordon Barnes beautifully frames the view between two station buildings, offering a glimpse into the past. As we gaze upon this image, we are immediately drawn to the central and western platforms that stretch out before us. The charm of Garsdale Railway Station is undeniable; it exudes an air of tranquility amidst its rural surroundings. Looking north-west from this vantage point, one can appreciate the picturesque landscape that unfolds beyond the station's boundaries. The rolling hills and lush greenery create a stunning backdrop for this bustling hub of transportation. Barnes' expert composition allows us to immerse ourselves in the ambiance of this bygone era. We can almost hear the distant whistle of a steam locomotive or imagine passengers eagerly awaiting their train's arrival on those very platforms. This photograph serves as a testament to both the enduring beauty of railway stations and their significance as vital connectors within our communities. As we reflect upon this snapshot frozen in time, let us celebrate not only Gordon Barnes' skillful eye but also acknowledge Historic England for preserving such precious glimpses into our shared heritage.
