EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the 1980s as volunteers Ian Cowan and Eric Maxwell diligently reconstruct the iconic Gibraltar Bridge at Marley Hill. The image captures a moment frozen in time on February 11th, 1987, showcasing the dedication and craftsmanship of these two mid-adult men. Donning their glasses and exuding a sense of purpose, Cowan and Maxwell stand proudly amidst the construction site of Tanfield Railway. This historic railway has long been an integral part of public transport, serving as a lifeline for countless journeys across generations. The presence of steam engines in the background adds an element of nostalgia to this scene. These powerful machines were once synonymous with transportation during that era. As they work together to rebuild the bridge, it is evident that these volunteers possess both skill and passion for preserving this important piece of history. Posing confidently for the camera, Cowan and Maxwell symbolize not only their own commitment but also that of numerous individuals who have dedicated themselves to maintaining our rich heritage. Their efforts ensure that future generations can continue to appreciate and enjoy this remarkable railway system. This print by NCJ serves as a reminder of how ordinary people can make extraordinary contributions through volunteerism. It encapsulates both the beauty of construction work and its significance in connecting communities through reliable transport networks.
