Devils Gauge Narrow Rheidol Vale
EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this image of the Vale of Rheidol narrow gauge railway at Devils Bridge, taken from The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection at Mary Evans Prints Online. The vintage photograph, likely captured between the Victorian and Edwardian eras, showcases the quaint charm of this narrow gauge railway as it winds its way through the picturesque Welsh countryside. The steam-powered locomotive, puffing out plumes of white smoke, adds an air of nostalgia and romance to the scene. The lantern slide, an early form of photographic projection, further emphasizes the antiquated nature of this transport method. The railway, which opened in 1902, was once a popular means of transportation for tourists visiting the scenic Devils Bridge area. The bridge itself, a natural limestone archway, looms in the background, adding an element of mystery and intrigue to the image. The lush greenery and rolling hills surrounding the bridge and railway create a serene and idyllic setting, making it a must-see destination for travelers seeking a glimpse into the past. This photograph is a testament to the beauty and allure of the Vale of Rheidol narrow gauge railway and the magical atmosphere of Devils Bridge during the early 20th century. It invites us to imagine the sights, sounds, and sensations of a bygone era, transporting us back in time and allowing us to appreciate the simple pleasures of a slower pace of life.
