Midland Station, Portrush: A Front View of a Bygone Era (circa Early 1900s, Portrush, Northern Ireland: County Antrim) This evocative photograph captures the front view of Midland Station in Portrush, Northern Ireland, during the early 1900s. The image transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the daily life of this bustling coastal town during the era of horse-drawn transportation. The Midland Station, a significant landmark in Portrush, is prominently featured in the photograph. The red-brick building, with its large arched windows and ornate detailing, stands proudly against the backdrop of a clear blue sky. The station's nameplate, adorned with the distinctive Midland Railway logo, adds an authentic touch to the scene. Outside the station, a multitude of horse-drawn vehicles line the cobblestone streets. Horse-drawn carriages, carts, and wagons are harnessed and ready for use, their shiny surfaces reflecting the sunlight. The horses, with their noble heads held high, seem poised for their next journey. The scene is completed by the presence of people, some in period attire, milling about the station. The ladies in their elegant hats and long dresses, the gentlemen in their suits and bowlers, all add to the sense of a bygone era. The hustle and bustle of activity around the station, from the loading and unloading of goods to the exchange of farewells, underscores the importance of the railway as a vital transportation hub. This photograph, with its rich historical context, offers a captivating glimpse into the past. Midland Station, Portrush, stands as a testament to the enduring charm of Northern Ireland's coastal towns and the role of the railway in shaping their history.
