EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time and witness a moment frozen in history as King George V, the majestic steam locomotive, gracefully crosses the iconic Usk Railway Bridge in Newport. This print from 1977 captures the essence of an era when steam power ruled the rails and ignited imaginations. The imposing figure of King George V dominates the frame, its regal presence exuding power and strength. The intricate details of this magnificent 'King Class' locomotive are beautifully preserved, showcasing the craftsmanship that defined GWR's golden age. As plumes of smoke billow from its chimney, it evokes a sense of nostalgia for a bygone era. The Usk Railway Bridge stands tall against the backdrop of Newport's skyline, serving as both a testament to engineering marvels and a symbol of progress during Britain's industrial revolution. Its arches gracefully span over River Usk, connecting communities while bearing witness to countless journeys taken on these historic tracks. This print is more than just an image; it is a gateway to reliving memories and experiencing firsthand what life was like during this remarkable period in railway history. It serves as a reminder that even today we can appreciate and celebrate our rich heritage through artifacts carefully preserved at STEAM Museum of GWR.
