EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we see Lou Avis of Siemens Electronics engrossed in the restoration process of a remarkable piece of history. The image captures him taking a close look at the 1909 Siemens engine, which once powered the operations at Westoe Pit earlier in the century. This snapshot was taken on January 18th, 1996, at the Stephenson Railway Museum located in Silverlink, North Shields. The photograph showcases not only Avis's dedication to his work but also his deep appreciation for these magnificent machines that have played an integral role in our transportation history. As he sits beside the engine, one can almost feel his admiration and respect for its craftsmanship and engineering prowess. This image transports us back to a time when diesel engines were revolutionizing public transport and railways were essential arteries connecting communities across vast distances. It serves as a reminder of how far we've come since then while honoring those who have contributed to this progress. Through this picture, we are invited to join Avis on his journey into the past - a journey filled with nostalgia and wonderment. It is an invitation to explore not just our physical surroundings but also our collective memory lane where stories like these continue to inspire generations after generations.
