EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the summer of 1995, capturing a moment in history when empty tracks stretched out from Victoria Station. The image tells the story of train drivers belonging to the ASEF union who initiated a series of one-day strikes on July 18th that year. As we gaze at this snapshot frozen in time, we can almost feel the tension and anticipation that must have filled the air. In the background, standing tall and imposing, is Battersea Power Station. Its iconic presence serves as a reminder of London's industrial past and adds an intriguing contrast to this scene of temporary stillness. The juxtaposition between modern transportation infrastructure and historic power generation creates a thought-provoking visual narrative. Photographer MacDiarmid Peter has expertly captured not only the physical elements but also the emotions associated with this significant event in railway history. Through his lens, he invites us to reflect on labor rights struggles and their impact on society as well as our reliance on public transportation systems. This print from Memory Lane Prints transports us back to an era defined by social unrest and change. It reminds us that even amidst uncertainty and disruption, there is beauty in capturing these moments for future generations to learn from and appreciate.
