The image captures a moment that is both intriguing and slightly nerve-wracking, as two men can be seen perched precariously on a ladder. It serves as a stark reminder of the safety concerns prevalent during this era. The G Shop, with its towering machinery and intricate contraptions, stands as a testament to the ingenuity and craftsmanship of the Great Western Railway (GWR). This photograph likely portrays a posed shot intended to shed light on the potential dangers faced by these skilled workers daily. The composition draws attention to their bravery and commitment while simultaneously highlighting the need for improved safety measures. As we gaze upon this historical artifact housed within STEAM Museum, we are transported into an era where risk was often taken in stride for progress.
