EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph transports us back in time to the bustling Oxford Circus tube station in Central London during the early 1900s. The scene is filled with a sense of anticipation and excitement as a crowd of people, mostly men, queue patiently at the booking office window. Dressed in their Edwardian attire, they are all eager to purchase their twopenny tickets for their journey on the Underground Railway. The Underground, also known as the Tube, was a relatively new mode of transportation in London at the time, having only been in operation since 1863. The introduction of the twopenny fare in 1912 made it an affordable option for the working class, leading to a significant increase in ridership. The booking office, with its ornate wooden interior and large, arched windows, is a testament to the elegance and grandeur of the era. The passengers, some deep in thought, others engaged in animated conversation, create a lively and dynamic atmosphere. The sense of community and shared experience is palpable as they wait their turn to purchase their tickets and embark on their journey. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into the past, providing us with a window into the daily lives of Londoners during the early 1900s and the excitement and wonder of the emerging transport system that would come to define the city.
