EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the National Railway Museum, we are transported back to the year 1958, where steam trains gracefully traverse the iconic Ribblehead Viaduct along the Settle and Carlisle line. The image showcases two magnificent locomotives, a British Railways Class 5 and Jubilee 4-6-0 steam engine, working in tandem as they doublehead the prestigious Waverley Express. The grandeur of this scene is enhanced by the breathtaking backdrop that nature has provided. The slopes of Pen-y-Ghent loom majestically in the distance while Ingleborough stands proudly to the right. These imposing peaks serve as a reminder of both man's engineering prowess and nature's awe-inspiring beauty. Photographer Eric Treacy skillfully captures this momentous occasion with his lens, freezing it in time for generations to come. His expertise allows us to appreciate not only the power and elegance of these steam engines but also their significance within Britain's rich railway heritage. This print serves as a testament to an era when steam trains reigned supreme on our railways, evoking nostalgia for those who witnessed such scenes firsthand or heard tales passed down through generations. It invites us all to marvel at how technology and nature can harmoniously coexist, creating memories that transcend time itself.
