EDITORS COMMENTS
The Duke of Sutherland's private engine Dunrobin, captured in this stunning photograph, takes us back to the golden era of steam locomotives. The year is 1950, and we find ourselves at Golspie station in the picturesque region of Sutherland, Scotland. As the train prepares to depart, a sense of anticipation fills the air. The Duke's personal engine stands proudly on the tracks, exuding elegance and power. Its polished exterior gleams under the soft Scottish sunlight as wisps of steam escape from its mighty chimney. This magnificent locomotive was not just a means of transportation for His Grace but also a symbol of his status and influence. As we gaze upon this vintage print from The Northcliffe Collection by EDWARDS, we are transported back in time to an era when railways were at their peak. The fifties were an age where trains connected communities across vast distances while evoking a sense of adventure and romance. This image reminds us that even today, amidst modern technology and high-speed travel options, there is something undeniably nostalgic about steam locomotives. They represent an era when journeys were savored rather than rushed; when every trip held excitement and possibility. Let this photograph transport you to a bygone era as you imagine yourself standing on that platform in Golspie station – witnessing history unfold before your eyes.
