EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the year 1905, showcases the South Eastern & Chatham Railway's (SE&CR) Hastings Express making a stop at London Bridge Station. The Hastings Express was a popular and fast-moving train service that connected London to the picturesque town of Hastings on the English coast. The steam locomotive, with its distinctive green livery, is seen here rushing towards the platform, ready to load its next batch of eager passengers. The conductor, dressed in his smart uniform, stands at the door, assisting passengers as they alight from the train. The platform at London Bridge Station bustles with activity, as travelers rush to catch their connecting trains or to board the Hastings Express for their journey to the seaside. The South Eastern & Chatham Railway was a significant player in the British transport industry during this era, with a vast network of routes and lines that crisscrossed the southeastern part of England. This photograph is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the daily hustle and bustle of rail travel during the early 20th century.
