EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, a Postbus, built by the Brockway Motor Company, is seen making its way across the Raudanjoki River in Finnish Lapland. The Raudanjoki is a picturesque tributary that flows into the larger Kemijoki River, and this image captures a moment in time from the late 1920s as the bus navigates the ferry. The Postbus was an essential means of transportation in the region, connecting the remote towns of Rovaniemi and Petsamo. The Brockway Motor Company, based in the United Kingdom, was known for producing robust and reliable vehicles, making them an ideal choice for the challenging terrain and harsh climate of Finnish Lapland. The Postbus, with its distinctive design and sturdy construction, is a testament to the ingenuity and resilience of the era. The photograph reveals a bustling scene, with the Postbus carrying passengers and cargo, including pedestrians and a car, as it prepares to disembark on the other side. The image offers a glimpse into the daily life of the region during the 1920s, showcasing the interconnectedness of communities and the importance of reliable transportation. This photograph is a captivating reminder of the history of transportation in Finnish Lapland and the crucial role the Postbus played in connecting people and places during a time when travel was not as convenient as it is today. The image is a beautiful representation of the region's rich history and the enduring spirit of the people who called it home.
