EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the 1910s with this print of Plemont and Corbiere Lighthouse in Jersey. Taken by the London & South Western Railway (LSWR), these carriage photographs showcase the stunning destinations reachable via Southampton. The image of Plemont transports us to a rugged coastline, where rocky cliffs tower above small buildings nestled below. From the sandy beach beneath, one can only marvel at the sheer beauty and grandeur of nature's architecture. The crashing waves against the rocks create an atmosphere of both tranquility and awe. In contrast, the picture of Corbiere Lighthouse presents a different kind of spectacle. Perched atop a flight of steps on a rocky outcrop, this iconic beacon stands tall against the vast expanse of sky and sea. Its purposeful design symbolizes safety and guidance for sailors navigating treacherous waters. Captured using color photography by The Photogram Company Limited from London and Detroit, Michigan, United States, these images evoke a sense of wanderlust and adventure that was prevalent during that era. They remind us how travel was once seen as an opportunity to explore new horizons and discover hidden gems. This remarkable print is part of NRM/Pictorial Collection at National Railway Museum – an invaluable glimpse into our rich railway heritage that continues to inspire generations today.
