EDITORS COMMENTS
Stepping back in time to the early 20th century, this print transports us to Truro railway station in Cornwall. Captured between 1904 and 1912, it offers a mesmerizing view from the footbridge, showcasing the magnificent locomotive Tasmania of the Bulldog class. Originally constructed in January 1904, this powerful steam engine was later renumbered as 3395 in 1912 – a testament to its enduring presence on these tracks. The photographer behind this remarkable snapshot remains a mystery; however, two names have been associated with it: Arthur Philp or Arthur William Jordan. Regardless of their identity, we owe them our gratitude for immortalizing this momentous scene that captures both the essence of Cornwall's rich rail history and the grandeur of Truro station. As we gaze upon this image, nostalgia washes over us. The hustle and bustle of passengers embarking and disembarking from trains fills our imagination. The distinct aroma of coal smoke lingers in the air as Tasmania stands tall with her gleaming metal exterior reflecting sunlight. This print serves as a poignant reminder of an era when railways were at their peak – connecting communities across vast distances while offering unparalleled marvels like Tasmania. It invites us to appreciate not only the engineering prowess but also the human stories woven into every journey taken from Truro station. Displayed here at Royal Cornwall Museum, let us cherish this piece of Cornish history that encapsulates an era long gone yet forever et
