EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the golden age of public transport in the 1930s. Standing proudly at Newcastle Central Station on a sunny day, we are presented with a remarkable sight - the observation car at the rear of the L. and N. E. R. Coronation train. As steam billows from its engine, this majestic train captures the attention of both dedicated train spotters and curious spectators alike. A medium group of people has gathered on the platform, eagerly awaiting its arrival from Edinburgh on a trial run. The atmosphere is filled with anticipation as passengers disembark from this magnificent locomotive, their journey through picturesque landscapes now complete. The observation car stands out among other carriages, exuding an air of elegance and sophistication. Intriguingly designed with large windows that offer panoramic views, it's no wonder why this particular carriage attracts so much interest. Passengers fortunate enough to secure a seat inside would have been treated to unparalleled vistas during their travels. This nostalgic image transports us back in time when steam trains were not just modes of transportation but symbols of progress and adventure. It serves as a reminder that even amidst bustling stations and busy platforms, there is always room for awe-inspiring moments like these – where history comes alive before our very eyes. Captured by NCJ for Memory Lane Prints, this photograph encapsulates an era long gone but fondly remembered by those who appreciate the beauty and grandeur of vintage trains.
