Crowds waving off troops leaving to fight in the First World, War, Britain, 1914, (1935). Only when it came to saying good-bye as the troop-train drew out did the grim reality that this might be a final parting loom large. Many left behind comforted themselves by saying the war would finish in six months. From " The Silver Jubilee Book - The Story of 25 Eventful Years in Pictures". [Odhams Press Ltd. London, 1935]

EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant print captures a significant moment in British history during the First World War. Taken in 1914 but published in 1935, it showcases crowds waving off troops as they depart to fight for their country. The image evokes a sense of patriotism and unity as loved ones bid farewell to their brave soldiers. As the troop-train begins to pull away, the grim reality that this farewell might be permanent becomes evident. The expressions on the faces of those left behind reveal a mix of hope and anxiety, with many comforting themselves by believing that the war would end within six months. The photograph is featured in "The Silver Jubilee Book - The Story of 25 Eventful Years in Pictures" published by Odhams Press Ltd. London in 1935. It serves as a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made by both soldiers and civilians during this tumultuous period. In an era defined by warfare and uncertainty, this image encapsulates the spirit of resilience and determination that prevailed among the British people. It symbolizes not only a nation's support for its armed forces but also highlights the profound impact war had on individuals' lives. This historical snapshot transports us back to a time when train stations were filled with emotions ranging from pride to fear, capturing an important chapter in world history forever etched into our collective memory.
