The National Railway Museum Diary 2009 is themed People and Places. As well as showing nostalgic images of engines from the age of steam, dramatic landscapes and sunny beaches, this year for the first time are included black and white photographs of the railway workers and passengers from the second half of the nineteenth century through to the 1960s. This offers a fascinating insight into the changing face of Britain and for many, will be a nostalgic trip to the past when trains were the primary mode of travel and the lifeblood of British industry.
