EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the nostalgic era of the 1950s, specifically the last day semaphore arm signals were used on the East Coast mainline. The scene unfolds outside Newcastle station, where a mighty goods train gracefully crosses the points. The steam engine at its helm exudes power and elegance as it effortlessly glides along the tracks. The backdrop is adorned with historical landmarks that add charm to this snapshot in time. In the distance, we catch a glimpse of Newcastle's iconic Tyne Bridge, standing tall and proud against the sky. The castle perched atop its hill serves as a reminder of centuries past, blending seamlessly with modernity. As we observe this moment frozen in history, our attention is drawn to a signalman diligently operating one of these soon-to-be obsolete semaphore arm signals. His presence adds an element of human connection amidst this mechanical marvel. The platform bustling with activity hints at a vibrant railway culture that once thrived here. Passengers eagerly await their trains while others bid farewell or welcome loved ones home. Kemsley's expertly captured image transports us back to an era when steam locomotives ruled supreme and rail travel was at its peak. It serves as both a testament to technological progress and a poignant reminder of times gone by - forever etched into our memories through this remarkable photograph from Memory Lane Prints.
