EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 1970s, a time when steam engines were still a common sight on our roads. In this image, we are transported to the public weighbridge belonging to the West Cumberland Farmers Trading Society on a sunny day in June 1972. The focal point of the picture is undoubtedly the magnificent Traction engine steam roller named Highland Lass. Its powerful presence and vintage charm instantly capture our attention. The steam rising from its chimney adds an ethereal touch, reminding us of a bygone era filled with innovation and engineering marvels. Surrounding Highland Lass, we see a small group of people gathered around, clearly fascinated by this impressive piece of machinery. Their mixed age range suggests that such pastimes were enjoyed by both young and old alike during this period. Perhaps they are enthusiasts or simply curious bystanders who couldn't resist witnessing this spectacle firsthand. Notably, in the background stands an array of scales used for weighing various goods – an essential part of any trading society's operations at that time. As we admire this snapshot frozen in time, it serves as a reminder not only of our industrial heritage but also of simpler times when hobbies like observing steam rollers brought joy and excitement into people's lives. This print truly encapsulates nostalgia and offers us a glimpse into history through NCJ's lens.
