EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the STEAM Museum of the GWR, we are transported back in time to witness the meticulous efforts undertaken by the Great Western Railway (GWR) to maintain smooth running services. The image showcases three impressive GWR Weedkilling Train Tenders - W83, W84, and W85. To ensure uninterrupted journeys along their tracks, the GWR recognized the importance of keeping unwanted weeds and foliage at bay. Their innovative solution came in the form of weedkilling trains equipped with an engine and three tenders. These tenders held water that was mixed with a potent weedkilling solution stored separately. As depicted in this photograph, these mighty machines would spray out this powerful concoction onto the tracks using jets located at their rear ends. This method allowed for efficient distribution across vast stretches of railway lines while effectively eliminating any potential obstructions caused by stubborn weeds. The dedication displayed by GWR through these specialized weedkilling trains highlights their commitment to providing passengers with safe and reliable transportation. By meticulously tending to both tracks and tracksides, they ensured a seamless journey for all who traveled on their network. This remarkable print serves as a testament to not only GWR's ingenuity but also their unwavering determination to deliver exceptional service standards throughout history.
