EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, we are transported back to the bustling No 14 Shop at Smiths Shop in 1938. The image captures a skilled worker engrossed in his craft, coupling links with utmost precision using a remarkable piece of machinery - the 5 cwt pneumatic hammer. Proudly displayed on the side of this powerful tool is the name B&S Massey Ltd, renowned manufacturers based in Lancashire who specialized in forging equipment. The atmosphere within the shop is palpable as sparks fly and rhythmic clanging echoes through the air. The worker dons a sturdy leather apron, evidence of his dedication to his trade and protection from flying debris. Surrounded by an array of tools and materials specific to carriage works, it becomes evident that this smithy is an essential cog in the intricate machinery that keeps Swindon Works running smoothly. This snapshot not only showcases technical expertise but also serves as a testament to the craftsmanship prevalent during this era. It offers us a glimpse into an industrial world where manual labor was paramount and innovation thrived. As we admire this print at STEAM Museum of GWR (Great Western Railway), we can't help but appreciate how each component played its part in constructing these magnificent locomotives that once traversed our nation's railways with grace and power.
