EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the late 1890s at Sutton-in-Ashfield Town railway station in Nottinghamshire. This photograph, taken in the year of the station's opening in 1898, offers a glimpse into the past of this historic railway town. The scene at the platform is bustling with activity as passengers, dressed in Victorian attire, eagerly await the arrival of their trains. The East Midland Railway line, extending from Leen Valley, can be seen in the background, with the tracks stretching out into the distance. The footbridge, a vital connection between the platforms, adds to the bustling atmosphere of the station. The iron structure, with its ornate details and intricate design, stands as a testament to the engineering prowess of the era. The footbridge not only allowed passengers to safely cross between platforms but also provided a vantage point to observe the comings and goings of the railway. The station, a significant addition to the town of Sutton-in-Ashfield, brought with it a new era of transport and connectivity. The Leen Valley Extension Railway, operated by the Great Northern Railway (GNR), opened up new opportunities for travel and commerce in the region. This photograph, with its rich details and authenticity, offers a captivating look into the history of railway travel in Nottinghamshire during the late 1890s.
