EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the golden era of British Railways, specifically in 1955 when this enchanting poster was produced. The artwork, created by an unknown artist, showcases the picturesque beauty and charm of Wales as a destination for rail travel. The poster highlights four remarkable little railways that traversed the Welsh countryside during summer services. First is the Vale of Rheidol Railway, winding its way through breathtaking valleys and offering passengers a truly immersive experience amidst nature's wonders. Next up is the Talyllyn Railway, known for its historic significance as one of the world's first preserved railways. Its quaint stations and stunning landscapes captivated travelers from near and far. Then we have the Snowdon Mountain Railway, which took adventurous souls on an unforgettable journey to reach Wales' highest peak – Mount Snowdon. Finally, there's the Great Orme Railway with its unique tramway system that provided panoramic views over Llandudno Bay. This print not only captures these iconic little railways but also transports us back in time to witness how British Railways promoted these hidden gems within Wales. It serves as a reminder of our rich railway heritage and encourages us to explore these scenic routes even today. (Photo credit: NRM/Pictorial Collection)
