EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 1970s, capturing a nostalgic view of Blue Anchor Station in Somerset. The image showcases the picturesque station with its charming Blue Anchor Signal Box standing proudly in the distance. Adjacent to it is the level crossing, which played a crucial role in controlling road traffic leading to the idyllic seafront. Blue Anchor Station holds a rich history, having opened its doors to passengers in July 1874. However, as time progressed and transportation methods evolved, it sadly bid farewell to its passenger services in January 1971. Fortunately, this historic site found new life when it became part of the West Somerset Railway preservation project in 1976. The photograph encapsulates an era gone by; one can almost imagine hearing the chugging sound of steam engines and witnessing bustling activity at this once-thriving station. It serves as a reminder of how railway stations were not just places for transit but also hubs for community connections and cherished memories. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we are transported back to an era where train travel was king and coastal adventures awaited eager visitors. This print from STEAM Museum of GWR allows us to appreciate both the architectural beauty of Blue Anchor Station and its significance within Somerset's transportation heritage without mentioning any commercial use or specific company details.
