EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the picturesque village of Horrabridge in Devon during the year 1923, offers a glimpse into the past when the South Devon and Tavistock Railway was still in operation. The image showcases the quaint village scene with its charming cottages and lush greenery, framed beautifully by the winding river Walkham. In the foreground, the railway tracks and rolling stock dominate the scene, adding an industrial charm to the idyllic setting. Horrabridge station, established in 1859, was an essential part of the community, connecting the village to the wider world. The railway played a significant role in the transportation of goods, including minerals, agricultural produce, and other essential commodities. The station's closure to passengers in 1962 marked the end of an era, leaving behind memories of steam trains, the clatter of tracks, and the hustle and bustle of the railway station. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of a bygone era, a time when the railway was an integral part of everyday life in Horrabridge and the surrounding areas. The rolling stock, with its intricate details and the steam engine, adds a sense of nostalgia and wonder, transporting us back to a time when the world moved at a slower pace. The image is a testament to the rich history of the South Devon and Tavistock Railway and the role it played in the lives of the people of Horrabridge and beyond.
