EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the enchanting era of steam locomotives, specifically Loco No. 2257 at Stratford on Avon on June 13th, 1959. The image beautifully captures the essence of this historical moment in Warwickshire's railway history. In the foreground stands Locomotive No. 2257, an impressive and powerful 0-6-0 engine that was once a symbol of progress and innovation for the Great Western Railway (GWR). Its majestic presence exudes strength and elegance against the backdrop of Stratford upon Avon's picturesque landscape. The photograph also showcases a charming signal box, standing tall as a guardian overseeing the intricate network of tracks below. This humble structure played a crucial role in ensuring safe passage for trains along their respective routes. As our eyes wander through this snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded of an era when rail travel held great significance and wonderment for communities across Britain. The different lines of track branching out from Stratford on Avon tell stories of journeys taken by countless passengers over many decades. Preserved within STEAM Museum, this print serves as a testament to our rich railway heritage and invites us to reflect upon how far we have come since those golden days when steam ruled supreme.
