EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the STEAM Museum of the GWR takes us back to Marazion Station in Cornwall, circa 1960. The image showcases a picturesque view of this quaint station nestled on the shores of Mounts Bay. Marazion Station has a rich history, having opened its doors to passengers in 1852 as part of the Cornish Main Line. For over a century, it served as a vital transportation hub connecting locals and visitors alike to various destinations across Cornwall. In this snapshot frozen in time, we can imagine the hustle and bustle that once filled these platforms. Passengers eagerly awaiting their trains or bidding farewell to loved ones; steam engines chugging along with billowing clouds of smoke; and station staff diligently ensuring smooth operations. However, nostalgia lingers within this frame as well. It is bittersweet knowing that Marazion Station closed its doors for good in October 1964, marking an end to an era of rail travel at this location. Nevertheless, through this photo print, we are transported back to a simpler time when train stations were not just places for transit but also gathering spots where stories unfolded and memories were made. As we gaze upon this evocative scene captured decades ago, let us appreciate the beauty and significance held within Marazion Station's walls - forever etched into history as an emblematic landmark along Cornwall's Cornish Main Line.
