Capturing the End of an Era - Two 'Farewell to Steam' Trains Bid Adieu to Southern Region
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this iconic photograph, taken on July 2nd, 1967, we witness a poignant moment in British railway history. As steam trains were being phased out and replaced by diesel engines, British Rail organized two special farewell journeys on the Southern Region. This particular image showcases the Orient Line, a majestic Bulleid Pacific Class locomotive engulfed in billowing clouds of smoke as it departs from Waterloo station en route to Weymouth. The photograph encapsulates the nostalgia and grandeur associated with steam travel during its golden age. The intricate details of the locomotive's design are beautifully captured against a backdrop of bustling activity at one of London's busiest stations. The image transports us back in time when train travel was not just about reaching a destination but also about experiencing elegance and charm. This vintage print serves as a reminder of how far transportation has come since then. It appeals not only to rail enthusiasts or trainspotters but also to anyone fascinated by historical moments frozen in time. Preserved within this archive photo is an important chapter in Britain's industrial heritage - marking both an end and a new beginning for rail transport
