EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the STEAM Museum of the GWR takes us back in time to Dauntsey Station, circa 1960. The image beautifully captures a nostalgic view of this historic station located on the main line in Wiltshire. As we gaze upon the photograph, our eyes are drawn to the well-preserved platforms, bustling with activity and passengers eagerly awaiting their trains. The focal point of this snapshot is undoubtedly the charming station building itself. With its distinctive architecture and traditional design, it exudes an air of elegance and grandeur that transports us straight into a bygone era. Its presence stands as a testament to both Victorian engineering prowess and enduring railway heritage. Adding further character to this scene is a magnificent road bridge that spans across the tracks, creating an enchanting juxtaposition between two modes of transportation - rail and road. This architectural marvel not only serves as functional infrastructure but also adds visual interest to an already picturesque setting. It's worth noting that Dauntsey Station opened its doors in 1868, serving as a vital transport hub for over nine decades before sadly closing down in 1965. This print allows us to appreciate and preserve the memory of this once-thriving station, immortalizing it within our hearts and minds. As we delve into history through images like these, we gain insight into how railways have shaped communities throughout time while evoking feelings of nostalgia for simpler days gone by.
