Trains: The Early Years offers an original view of the first century or so of railways and trains, reflecting the early influence of Stephenson's Rocket in England, through two world wars, prosperity, depression, resistance and acceptance to the middle of the 20th century. Included are spectacular line side images focusing on the power, action and motion of locomotives in some of the most desolate yet beautiful landscapes as well as in crowded stations, bustling cities and locomotive works. Much of the progress of the railways has been uniquely chronicled by the IIulton|Arehive collection which documents the historical and technological growth of the railways and their impact on the world today.
