EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the vibrant era of the 1950s. The L46, a fifty-year-old steam train, embarks on a nostalgic journey around the inner circle of London's underground. A group of passionate train enthusiasts eagerly board the vintage locomotive for an unforgettable experience. Amongst them stands Herbert Turner, a retired steam train driver at the age of 78. His weathered face adorned with a proud beard speaks volumes about his lifelong dedication to these magnificent machines. As he joins fellow passengers and driver Alfred Cornish on this remarkable adventure, their shared love for railways unites them in anticipation. The platform exudes an atmosphere filled with excitement and curiosity as bystanders observe this rare spectacle unfolding before their eyes. The rail tracks gleam under the weight of history while silently whispering tales from decades gone by. Arthur Sidey skillfully captures this momentous occasion through his lens, freezing it in time for future generations to admire. This evocative image serves as a testament to our enduring fascination with trains and our desire to preserve their legacy. As we gaze upon this photograph from Memory Lane Prints, we are reminded that even amidst technological advancements and progressions within transportation systems, there will always be those who cherish the charm and romance found in relics like the L46 steam train.
