EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a "Fine Mixed Traffic Type" steam locomotive from the Great Northern Railway, dating back to approximately 1930. The creator of this remarkable image remains unknown, adding an air of mystery and intrigue to its historical significance. Featured in "The Splendid Book of Locomotives" by C. Gibbard Jackson, published by Sampson Low, Marston Co Ltd London in the same era, this photograph captures the essence of British railway transportation during the thirties. The locomotive depicted is a powerful 2-6-0 steam engine with a tender attached at the rear. Standing proudly against an outdoor backdrop, it symbolizes both elegance and strength that characterized locomotion during this period. This monochrome depiction allows us to appreciate every intricate detail on its exterior while transporting us back to a time when steam trains were at their peak. As we delve into history through this image, we are reminded of George Gibbard Jackson's contribution as he curated "The Splendid Book of Locomotives". His passion for preserving these iconic modes of transport shines through his work. This print serves as a testament to Britain's rich railway heritage and acts as a window into an era where steam trains dominated transportation networks across the country. It invites viewers to imagine themselves standing on that platform in the 1930s, witnessing firsthand the power and beauty that defined Great Northern Railway's mixed traffic type locomotives.
