EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the STEAM Museum of the GWR transports us back to a bygone era, showcasing the magnificent Treviddo Viaduct in all its glory. Built in 1857, this timber viaduct served as a vital link on the mainline between Treslugan and Liskeard in Cornwall. Standing tall and proud against a picturesque backdrop, it symbolizes both engineering prowess and natural beauty. The Treviddo Viaduct was an architectural marvel of its time, with its intricate wooden structure spanning across lush valleys and meandering rivers. Its completion brought about increased connectivity and facilitated smoother transportation for goods and passengers alike. However, progress eventually caught up with this iconic landmark, leading to its replacement in 1898. As we gaze upon this historic image, we are reminded of the ingenuity that went into constructing such grand structures using timber materials. The viaduct's elegant design is a testament to human innovation while harmoniously blending with Cornwall's scenic landscape. While no longer serving its original purpose today, this photograph allows us to appreciate the rich history embedded within our railway heritage. It serves as a reminder of how infrastructure has evolved over time but continues to shape our world even now. In preserving images like these at STEAM Museum of the GWR, we ensure that future generations can admire and learn from these remarkable feats of engineering that have shaped our past.
