EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the Kelvin Hall April 1951 Festival Exhibition of Industrial Power, where this print transports us to a bygone era. Standing proudly at the heart of the exhibition is a magnificent locomotive, built with precision and craftsmanship at the renowned North British Locomotive Works in Springburn, Glasgow. Its powerful presence symbolizes an age when steam trains ruled the tracks and ignited our fascination for railway marvels. This particular locomotive was showcased at Kelvin Hall before embarking on an extraordinary journey across continents. After capturing hearts in Scotland, it embarked on a voyage to Melbourne, Australia, where it would continue its legacy on the Victorian Railways. This photograph captures a pivotal moment as it stood resplendent on display before being shipped overseas. The image evokes nostalgia for those who remember witnessing these impressive machines firsthand or hearing tales from their ancestors about this golden age of transportation. The festival atmosphere permeates through every detail - from excited whispers echoing within Kelvin Hall's walls to visitors marvelling at this engineering masterpiece. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded of how exhibitions like these celebrated industrial power and innovation while connecting communities worldwide through shared awe and admiration for these mighty engines that once dominated our landscapes.
