EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the historic Frome Station in Somerset, captured on a picturesque day of April 19th, 1960. The focal point of this image is the magnificent overall roof, an architectural marvel designed by J R Hannaford, who was none other than Isambard Kingdom Brunel's esteemed assistant. Frome Station holds a significant place in British railway history as one of the few remaining stations boasting a timber through train shed. Its construction dates back to 1850 when it first opened its doors to eager travelers. Today, this remarkable structure has been rightfully recognized and listed as Grade II. The photograph allows us to step back in time and witness the grandeur of Frome Station during the swinging sixties. It captures not only the impressive roof but also provides glimpses of trains passing through and passengers bustling about their daily routines. Preserved within this image is a piece of our transportation heritage - an era where steam locomotives were still prevalent and rail travel held an undeniable charm. This snapshot from yesteryear serves as a reminder that even amidst progress and modernization, there are remnants worth cherishing. As we gaze upon this timeless scene frozen in black-and-white hues, we can't help but appreciate both the craftsmanship behind such architectural wonders and our ability today to preserve these relics for future generations at STEAM Museum of GWR.
