EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the enchanting view north from Ely North Railway Junction in 1911. The image showcases a nest of three storage sidings, serving as a temporary home for Great Eastern Railway cattle wagons. These sturdy wagons stand proudly, awaiting their next journey through the vast railway network. In the background, we catch a glimpse of fruit vans at North Junction, adding a splash of color to this historic scene. The juxtaposition of these vibrant vans against the backdrop of steam locomotives and tracks creates an intriguing contrast that transports us back in time. The sepia-toned photograph beautifully highlights the intricate details of this bustling junction. Each element tells its own story - from the meticulously maintained locomotives to the carefully arranged wagons ready for transportation. It is evident that every piece plays an essential role in keeping Britain's railways running smoothly. Preserved by Imagination Works and showcased at National Railway Museum (NRM), this remarkable snapshot offers us a window into our rich railway heritage. As we gaze upon it, we can almost hear the rhythmic chugging sound and feel the excitement that once filled these tracks. Sep13 marks not only when this photograph was taken but also serves as a reminder of how far our transport systems have come since then. This nostalgic image invites us to appreciate both past achievements and future possibilities within the world of trains and locomotives - forever capturing our fascination with rail travel.
