EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the essence of a bygone era in rail transport history. Taken on 19 September 1962 at Bristol Temple Meads station, the image shows the iconic Devonian steam locomotive 45685, proudly displaying its name and number on the side, waiting to depart on the Paignton to Bradford route. The steam engine, with its powerful presence and intricate details, stands in stark contrast to the modern, sleek designs that were beginning to dominate the railway landscape. The station, bustling with activity, is filled with passengers, some clustered around the engine, eagerly anticipating the journey ahead. The tracks stretch out into the distance, leading to unknown destinations, while the station sign, bearing the name of the historic city of Bristol, adds to the sense of adventure and excitement. The Devonian, built in 1958, was one of the last steam locomotives to be built for British Railways, and this photograph captures it in its element, embodying the spirit of the 1960s and the golden age of rail travel. The steam engine's powerful engine, hissing and puffing, would have filled the air with a sense of anticipation and the promise of a thrilling journey through the beautiful West Country. This photograph is a testament to the enduring allure of steam trains and the rich history of rail transport in Britain. It invites us to take a step back in time, to imagine the sights, sounds, and sensations of a bygone era, and to appreciate the beauty and romance of the steam engine in all its glory.
