EDITORS COMMENTS
Departure Platform - Hastings Station, East Sussex SE&CR (South Eastern and Chatham Railway), Circa 1910s: This evocative photograph captures the bustling activity of Hastings Station in East Sussex during the 1910s, as passengers and cargo prepare for departure on the South Eastern and Chatham Railway (SE&CR). The scene is dominated by the powerful presence of steam locomotives and their engines, their billowing smoke and hissing steam a testament to the raw power and energy that drove the railway system. The platform is filled with a sense of anticipation and excitement, as travelers check their tickets, load their luggage onto the trains, and wave goodbye to loved ones. The railway signals in the foreground stand ready to guide the trains safely out of the station, adding to the sense of order and efficiency that characterized the railway industry during this period. The Departure Platform at Hastings Station is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a unique perspective on the role that railways played in connecting communities and facilitating travel during the early 20th century. This photograph is a reminder of the romance and adventure that surrounded train travel, and the enduring allure of the railway experience.
