EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the late 1950s at Coryton Cove, Dawlish, Devon, where the tranquility of the coastal scene is interrupted by the majestic presence of a passing steam train. The gentle lapping of the waves against the shoreline and the soft hues of the setting sun create an idyllic atmosphere, evoking a sense of nostalgia for a bygone era. The steam locomotive, with its distinctive hiss and billowing smoke, cuts an impressive figure as it traverses the cliffside railway track, its powerful engine pulling a string of carriages filled with passengers. The train, a testament to the engineering marvels of the time, adds a sense of excitement and adventure to the otherwise peaceful coastal scene. The charming seaside town of Dawlish, located in the picturesque county of Devon, is known for its beautiful beaches, dramatic cliffs, and stunning coastal views. In the 1950s, the town was a popular destination for holidaymakers seeking a break from their daily routines. The arrival of the steam train, with its distinctive whistle and chugging sounds, would have been a much-anticipated event for many visitors. This photograph captures a moment in time, a fleeting instant when the past and the present converge, inviting us to reflect on the rich history of transport and the enduring allure of the British coastline.
