EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the disused Rowley Railway Station near Consett, County Durham on 28th March 1968. The station, once a bustling hub of public transport in the 1960s, now stands derelict and forgotten. Weeds have claimed their territory, entwining themselves around the tracks and rails that were once traversed by trains carrying passengers on their journeys. The image showcases not only the desolation of this abandoned station but also its historical significance. This particular railway station was dismantled brick by brick and meticulously rebuilt at Beamish Open Air Museum, preserving its charm for future generations to appreciate. A striking feature in this photograph is the old railway bridge that spans over the tracks, serving as a reminder of days gone by when steam locomotives would rumble beneath it. The signal box stands tall nearby, a silent witness to countless train departures and arrivals. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we are transported back to an era where public transportation played a vital role in connecting communities. The platform remains empty now but serves as a poignant reminder of all those who embarked on their own personal journeys from this very spot. Thanks to Memory Lane Prints' dedication to preserving history through photography like this one captured by NCJ, we can reflect upon our past and appreciate how far we've come in terms of transportation technology while cherishing these remnants from yesteryears.
