Stream to modern day
Description
“Steam to Modern Day” — by Nikita Spires
At Stallingborough Station, artist Nikita Spires paints a vivid journey through time — from the golden age of steam trains to the modern railways of today. The mural fills the shelter walls with colour and movement, depicting crowds, platforms, and wildflower meadows beneath a dramatic sunset sky.
This piece celebrates 200 years of British rail history, blending nostalgia with progress and connecting Stallingborough’s past to its present-day community. The contrast of black-and-white heritage scenes against bursts of colour symbolises how history continues to shape the journeys of today’s passengers.
