EDITORS COMMENTS
In the event of nuclear fall-out, this exercise was carried out on The Bluebell Railway in Sussex. In this print from April 1962, a group of children, dressed as 'evacuees', can be seen reaching their destination at Horsted Keynes station. Each child is correctly labelled, highlighting the meticulous planning that went into these civil defence exercises during the Cold War era. The Bluebell Railway Line served as an ideal location for such drills due to its remote and picturesque setting. As tensions escalated during this period, governments around the world sought to prepare their citizens for potential nuclear disasters. These exercises aimed to simulate real-life evacuation scenarios and ensure that people were familiar with emergency procedures. The image captures a moment frozen in time - innocent faces peering through train windows, unaware of the gravity behind their role-playing. The guard standing by represents the dedicated individuals who worked tirelessly to protect communities in times of crisis. While this photograph showcases a historical event on The Bluebell Railway Line, it is important not to mention any commercial use or reference any specific company associated with it. Instead, let us appreciate how images like these provide valuable insights into our past and remind us of humanity's resilience even amidst uncertain times.
