EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the essence of travel by rail in the 1920s, specifically the London, Midland & Scottish Railway (LMS) Scotch Express as it gracefully passes over the water troughs at Brock. The image, published in the Railway Supplement in 1925 (p.62a), showcases the LMS Scotch Express in its prime, with its powerful steam engine billowing smoke and the gleaming carriages following closely behind. The water troughs, an essential feature of railway infrastructure at the time, are expertly navigated by the skilled locomotive driver, ensuring a seamless journey for the passengers aboard. The serene landscape of the Scottish countryside in the background adds to the tranquility of the scene, contrasting the raw power and motion of the train. This photograph is a testament to the engineering marvels of the past and the romance of rail travel during the interwar period.
