Spanning from 1835 to 1885, this remarkable milestone is beautifully depicted in a watercolour by A. Heins, which has been immortalized in this print. The image transports us back to the late nineteenth century, where we witness a grand procession showcasing various modes of transport that have shaped European society. The focus, however, lies on the magnificent steam train at its center. With billowing clouds of smoke and wheels churning with power, it symbolizes progress and innovation. As we delve into this historical masterpiece, we are reminded of how railways revolutionized travel and trade during this era. They connected cities and nations like never before, transforming Europe's landscape both physically and economically.

It commemorates not only an impressive railway system but also celebrates half a century marked by advancements that propelled societies forward. Ken Welsh's skillful capture allows us to appreciate every intricate detail within the watercolour painting - from the meticulously painted locomotive to the vibrant colors that bring life to each carriage passing through picturesque landscapes. This print is more than just an artistic representation; it encapsulates an entire epoch defined by progress and change. It invites us to reflect on our own journey through time while
