EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the picturesque scene of a cove in Dawlish, Devon, during the 1980s. The tranquil waters of the English Channel gently lap against the pebbled shore, creating a soothing melody that echoes through the air. Boats of various sizes and shapes are moored at the cove, their vibrant colors adding a splash of excitement to the serene landscape. In the distance, the silhouette of a grand hotel stands proudly on the cliffside, its white walls gleaming in the sunlight. The hotel, along with other buildings, adds character and charm to the coastal town. A set of steps leads down to the platform of the railway station, where an Intercity train is approaching. The train, with its distinctive red and white livery, emits a sense of anticipation and adventure as it prepares to whisk passengers away to their next destination. The railway track weaves its way along the cliffside, providing a vital transport link between the town and the rest of the country. The Intercity train, with its powerful engine and sleek design, epitomizes the spirit of travel during this era. The combination of the natural beauty of the cove, the historic railway, and the bustling activity of the boats creates a scene that is quintessentially British and quintessentially Devon. This photograph is a snapshot of a bygone era, a time when life moved at a slower pace, and the simple pleasures of a day by the sea were cherished. It is a reminder of the enduring charm of the English coast and the importance of preserving the rich heritage of our railways.
