EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the moment of celebration as the procession enters Regent-Street Station during the opening ceremony of the Barnsley Branch Railway in 1857. The image, taken from an unknown source, offers a glimpse into the excitement and pride of the community as they mark the completion of this significant transportation project. The procession is led by the Barnsley brass band, with musicians seated comfortably in a wagon pulled by seven powerful horses. Following behind are the workmen who built the railway, marching proudly on foot. A second wagon carries the Barnsley drum and fife band, adding to the lively atmosphere. The route of the procession was adorned with numerous arches, tastefully decorated with evergreens, creating a festive and welcoming scene. The contractors for the work were Messrs. Lapish, Nichols, and Cameron. The railway's construction began under the supervision of James Potter, engineer for the Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincolnshire Railway, but was completed primarily by R. Russell since June of that year. This photograph is a testament to the hard work and dedication of the people involved in the project, and the sense of accomplishment felt by the community as they welcomed the new railway into their town. The Barnsley Branch Railway brought increased connectivity and economic opportunities, making it an essential addition to the region's transportation infrastructure.
