This print takes us back to the year 1935, when rail travel was at its peak and Brighton and Hove were the ultimate seaside destinations. The poster, created for London, Midland & Scottish Railway (LMS), Great Western Railway (GWR), and Southern Railway (SR), aimed to entice travelers with the promise of a delightful journey to these coastal towns. The artwork by G D Tidmarsh beautifully captures the essence of this era. A stylized map is featured, showcasing the routes of each railway company involved. The intricate details highlight not only their connectivity but also emphasize the charm and allure of Brighton and Hove. As we delve into this image, we are transported to a time where train travel was an adventure in itself. Passengers would board these iconic trains, eagerly anticipating their arrival at these vibrant coastal resorts. The poster serves as a visual guide for those seeking sun-soaked beaches, lively entertainment venues, and picturesque landscapes. Preserved by the National Railway Museum's Pictorial Collection, this print allows us to appreciate both the artistic brilliance behind such promotional materials as well as glimpse into a bygone era of transportation history. It serves as a reminder that even today's modern railways owe much gratitude to their predecessors who paved the way for seamless connections across vast distances while simultaneously promoting beautiful destinations like Brighton and Hove.
