EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the STEAM Museum of the GWR transports us back to a significant moment in Swindon's history. Taken on January 28th, 1970, it offers a glimpse into the past by showcasing the external view of Swindon Station entrance. The station building depicted here is an iconic representation of its time. The photograph holds particular significance as it captures a structure that no longer exists today. In 1972, this original station building was demolished and replaced with a more modernized counterpart along with an accompanying office block. Thus, this image serves as a poignant reminder of how architecture evolves over time and reflects changing societal needs. Located in Wiltshire, Swindon Station has long been regarded as a vital junction within the region's transportation network. This photo highlights not only its historical importance but also provides insight into the aesthetic choices prevalent during the 1970s. Preserved within this single frame are elements such as classic signage and architectural details that transport viewers back to an era characterized by unique design sensibilities. It invites contemplation about how our surroundings shape our experiences and memories. As we admire this remarkable piece from STEAM Museum of the GWR, let us appreciate its ability to evoke nostalgia while reminding us of progress and transformation that shapes our cities' landscapes throughout time.
