EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling Midlenhall railway sidings in 1910. At the west end of the goods and coal yard, beyond the towering goods shed, a vibrant scene unfolds before our eyes. The composition showcases a diverse array of wagons from various railways, including colliery and merchants coal wagons alongside Great Eastern Railway (GER) and Great Northern Railway high-sided open wagons. Interestingly, all the covered vans belong to GER. Amidst this lively setting, two diligent men can be seen meticulously loading a James Owen private owner wagon. Their dedication is evident as they carefully handle each piece of cargo destined for its next destination. The steam locomotive stands proudly nearby, ready to transport these goods across vast distances. The sepia-toned image exudes an air of nostalgia and transports us back in time when railways were at their peak as a vital mode of transportation. It offers a glimpse into an era where tracks stretched far and wide, connecting communities and facilitating trade. This remarkable photograph is part of the imagination works collection housed at Mildenhall's National Railway Museum (NRM). Its historical significance lies not only in capturing a moment frozen in time but also in preserving the rich heritage associated with rail travel
