EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Changing the points" we are transported back to the Marley Hill Steam Centre in Stanley on a warm summer day in 1973. The image showcases Frank Robson, a skilled mid-adult man, diligently working on one of the ten locomotives undergoing restoration at the center. As an experienced driver and engineer, Frank is seen here carefully adjusting the points, ensuring smooth transitions for trains along their rural journey. His expertise and dedication shine through as he meticulously tends to every detail of these magnificent engines that once roared with power across these very rails. The scene exudes nostalgia from the 1970s era, capturing not only the essence of public transport but also evoking memories of simpler times when steam-powered trains were a common sight. The steam billowing from the locomotive adds an element of mystique and wonder to this picturesque setting. This print by NCJ transports us back in time, reminding us of our rich railway heritage and igniting a sense of admiration for those who tirelessly worked behind-the-scenes to keep our transportation system running smoothly. It serves as a beautiful tribute to both Frank Robson's craftsmanship and all those involved in preserving these historic treasures for future generations to enjoy.
