EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The One Horse 'Dandy' on the Port Carlisle-Bowness railway" takes us back to a bygone era of public transport. Captured on the 22nd of February, 1934, this image showcases an extraordinary sight - a single horse pulling an old passenger coach up a long incline. But what makes it even more fascinating is that after reaching the top, the horse steps up behind to ride back. As we delve into this snapshot from history, we see passengers of mixed ages sitting inside and around the sides of the coach. Some even daringly perch themselves on its roof, eager to experience this unique mode of transportation. The expressions on their faces range from excitement to curiosity as they embark on their journey through picturesque landscapes. Transportation in the 1930s was vastly different from today's modern marvels. This photograph reminds us of simpler times when railways were not only functional but also served as sources of wonder and adventure for people across all walks of life. The presence of this Caucasian horse adds an element of charm and nostalgia to the scene. It symbolizes both strength and companionship between humans and animals during those days when technology had yet to dominate our lives. Preserved by NCJ in Memory Lane Prints, this print allows us to relive a moment frozen in time - one where a humble horse became an integral part of public transport history along the Port Carlisle-Bowness railway route.
