EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage print from 1907 showcases the Midland Railway as "The Most Interesting Route to Scotland". The poster, designed and printed by Nathaniel Lloyd & Co in London, presents a detailed map of Great Britain, highlighting the path taken by the majestic Cock O the North steam locomotive. Intricately illustrated on this remarkable artwork is not only the impressive 1025 Cock O the North locomotive itself but also a striking male bird clutching a ribbon in its beak. This avian symbol proudly displays the name of the locomotive, adding an element of elegance and charm to this already enchanting piece. As you gaze upon this historic print, you are transported back in time to an era when train travel was at its peak. The intricate details and vibrant colors capture your imagination and evoke a sense of adventure. You can almost hear the rhythmic chugging of steam engines and feel their power as they traverse through picturesque landscapes. This poster serves as both a testament to Midland Railway's commitment to providing exceptional service for travelers journeying between England and Scotland, as well as an exquisite work of art that encapsulates a bygone era. It is truly a treasure for railway enthusiasts and history buffs alike.
