In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the 1980s as Locomotive No. 21 steams into spring at the Tanfield Railway near Stanley. After undergoing its winter overhaul on May 20th, 1986, the engine is ready for a busy season ahead. The all-clear signal is given by boiler inspector Edward McPhee, ensuring that this magnificent piece of machinery is in perfect working order. Built in 1954 by Robert Stephenson and Hawthorn for use at Stella South Power Station near Blaydon, Locomotive No. 21 has since become an iconic symbol of engineering excellence and public transport history. Its presence on the rails evokes a sense of nostalgia and wonder among both young and old alike. As two men stand proudly beside the locomotive, their smiles reflect not only their pride in maintaining such a remarkable machine but also their anticipation for the exciting journey that lies ahead. This image captures a moment frozen in time - a testament to human ingenuity and our enduring fascination with steam-powered trains. Whether you're an enthusiast or simply appreciate the beauty of vintage transportation, this print serves as a reminder of how railways have shaped our world and continue to captivate us today.
