EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back to the vibrant atmosphere of St. Pancras, a bustling terminus of the London, Midland and Scottish Railway in 1935. The creator remains unknown, but their lens captured an aerial view that showcases the impressive engineering marvels of this era. In this elevated view, we see a hive of activity as people move about in the background against a backdrop dominated by railway tracks and station buildings. The image offers a glimpse into daily life at St. Pancras during its heyday – an era when steam trains were still prevalent and smoke billowed from locomotives. The scene is not without its challenges; pollution from coal-fired engines hangs in the air, reminding us of the environmental impact of transportation at that time. Nevertheless, it also serves as a testament to human ingenuity with gas holders visible on one side and various hoists scattered throughout. St. Pancras Station stands proud as both a transport hub and architectural masterpiece amidst this industrial landscape. Its grandeur is matched only by nearby Kings Cross Station, forming an essential part of Britain's railway network. This remarkable print comes from "Railway Wonders of the World" published by The Amalgamated Press Limited in London in 1935 - a publication dedicated to showcasing extraordinary feats within rail travel worldwide.
