EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from May 1944, we are transported back to the bustling North Fleet depot during World War Two. The image captures a moment of unity and resilience as husband and wife bus crews check in for their day's work. Lined up neatly from right to left, we see six couples who have dedicated themselves to serving their community through public transport. Mr. and Mrs. William Reader, Mr. and Mrs. Walter Coole, Mr. and Mrs. Fred Annal, Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Fifield, Mr. and Mrs James Nolan, and finally, Mr. and Mrs John Cox stand proudly side by side. Their determined expressions reflect the weight of responsibility they carry on their shoulders during these challenging times on the home front - an era marked by rationing, air raids, and uncertainty. As they patiently wait in queue before embarking on their daily routes across town or perhaps even further afield for wartime duties; one can't help but admire their dedication to keeping transportation running smoothly amidst adversity. This photo serves as a poignant reminder of the unsung heroes who played vital roles during World War Two - not only soldiers fighting abroad but also those working tirelessly behind the scenes to keep society functioning. Memory Lane Prints has once again captured a powerful snapshot of history that reminds us all of the strength found within communities when faced with extraordinary circumstances like war.
