EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this print of Tenterden Town Station circa 1937, showcasing the iconic Ford Railcar on the Kent and East Sussex Railway. This historical railway line has a rich heritage, originally known as the Rother Valley Railway when it opened its doors in 1900. As it expanded to connect Robertsbridge to Tenterden Town and later Headcorn by May 1905, the name was changed to the Kent & East Sussex Railway in 1904. Immerse yourself in nostalgia as you admire this remarkable piece from the Ronald Shephard Collection, carefully preserved at West Sussex Record Office (Ref No: Shephard 1/28/3). The image captures an era where steam railways were at their peak, transporting passengers across picturesque landscapes. The focal point of this photograph is undoubtedly the Ford Railcar, a symbol of innovation during that time. Its sleek design and powerful engine revolutionized transportation for both locals and visitors alike. Today, this preserved railway continues to delight enthusiasts who appreciate its historical significance
