EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a nostalgic glimpse into the past, showcasing the iconic Swindon Works in 1982. As one's eyes wander through this historical image, they are immediately drawn to the Intercity 125 train zooming past on the main London to Bristol line. The sheer speed and power of this magnificent locomotive is palpable, evoking a sense of awe and admiration for both its engineering prowess and its role in connecting two major cities. The building that serves as a backdrop to this dynamic scene has since transformed into what is now known as STEAM - Museum of the GWR. Once home to British Rail Engineering Limited (BREL) and referred to as "20 Shop" it witnessed countless hours of hard work by skilled craftsmen who meticulously crafted and maintained these remarkable trains. Transporting us back in time, this photograph encapsulates an era when Class 43 locomotives reigned supreme, symbolizing progress and modernity. It invites us to reflect upon how far we have come technologically while cherishing our rich railway heritage. As we gaze at this snapshot frozen in time, let us appreciate not only the physical transformation of Swindon Works but also acknowledge how it has evolved into a cherished cultural institution that celebrates the legacy of Great Western Railway.
