EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to April 1935, capturing a moment in time where trolley bus wires frame a Southern Railway passenger train speeding over the Malden railway bridge. The bridge is undergoing rebuilding, evident from the construction work visible in the image. The scene portrayed is one of tranquility and stillness, as there seems to be a dearth of traffic on the road below. Only a car and bus can be seen beyond the arch, highlighting how different transportation was during that era. The absence of road markings adds to the charm of this vintage snapshot. Looking closely at the surroundings, one cannot help but notice how quaint and almost whimsical everything appears. The plants growing alongside the tracks seem rather Heath Robinson-esque, adding an element of uniqueness to this street scene frozen in time. As we delve into this photograph's details, it becomes clear that it captures not only a specific moment but also provides insights into life during that period. It showcases both old-fashioned advertising billboards and steam locomotives - symbols of an era long gone. Preserved by Daily Mirror's Memory Lane Prints collection, this print invites us to step back in time and immerse ourselves in London's history while appreciating its ever-evolving transport system.
