EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the historic Felin Fach Station and Signal Box, nestled in the picturesque region of Powys, Wales. The image beautifully captures the essence of this Welsh station, with its charming station building and iconic signal box standing proudly against a backdrop of lush greenery. Originally known as Ystrad station when it first opened its doors to passengers in May 1911, this railway gem underwent a name change to Felin Fach in January 1913. Serving as a vital transportation hub for locals and travelers alike, the station played an important role in connecting communities during its operational years. Sadly, Felin Fach Station closed its doors permanently in 1951. Over time, it gradually lost its bustling goods traffic before eventually succumbing to closure. However, even after ceasing operations, this beloved piece of history continued to hold significance for those who cherished memories made within its walls. The track that once carried trains through this enchanting landscape was lifted in 1975. Yet despite these changes over the years, this print serves as a timeless reminder of Felin Fach's rich heritage and enduring beauty. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time at STEAM Museum of the GWR (Great Western Railway), we are transported back to an era where steam engines chugged along these tracks and passengers eagerly awaited their next adventure from Felin Fach Station.
