EDITORS COMMENTS
Penwithers Viaduct, 1920: A Testament to Engineering Brilliance". This print from the STEAM Museum of the GWR takes us back in time to witness the grandeur of Penwithers Viaduct. Built in 1920, this magnificent timber Class A viaduct stood tall and proud on the Falmouth branch line in Cornwall. Stretching an impressive 813 feet long and towering at a height of 90 feet, it was a true engineering marvel of its time. The viaduct's intricate design showcased the ingenuity and craftsmanship that went into constructing such a monumental structure. Its sturdy timber beams gracefully spanned across lush green valleys, providing a vital link for trains traversing through this picturesque region. However, as with many structures of its era, progress eventually caught up with Penwithers Viaduct. In 1926, it was replaced by more modern materials and techniques that could better accommodate evolving transportation needs. Nevertheless, this print serves as a poignant reminder of an era when wooden viaducts dominated the landscape and exemplifies how human innovation can shape our surroundings. It invites us to appreciate not only the beauty but also the legacy left behind by these remarkable feats of engineering. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we are transported back to an age where timber giants like Penwithers Viaduct reigned supreme – forever etching their mark on history.
