EDITORS COMMENTS
In this black and white portrait captured in May 1926, we are transported back to a significant moment in history - the General Strike of 1926. The photograph, taken by Fox Photos/Getty Images, showcases an intriguing scene at Kings Cross LNER railway station in London. Two volunteer enginemen can be seen exchanging greetings and beer as they change over their duties. The image exudes a sense of camaraderie and resilience amidst challenging times. These men, dressed in their locomotive steam engine attire, stand tall with determination etched on their faces. Their hands reach out to one another, symbolizing not only the exchange of refreshments but also the unity that prevailed during this period of industrial unrest. This print is a poignant reminder of the struggles faced by workers during the General Strike. It serves as a testament to their unwavering spirit and willingness to support each other through difficult circumstances. The monochromatic format adds depth and timelessness to the image, emphasizing its historical significance.

It stands as an ode to those who fought for better working conditions and serves as an inspiration for us all to remember our shared humanity when facing challenges head-on
