EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the 1970s, where Ted Tomiak, a student hailing from Jesmond in Newcastle, takes on the responsibility of signal box duty. The image captures an ordinary day on April 23rd, 1973 when young Ted finds himself immersed in the world of trains and public transport. With his glasses perched upon his nose and a determined expression on his face, it is evident that Ted approaches his work with utmost dedication. As he stands within the signal box, surrounded by levers and switches controlling the intricate railway system, one can only imagine the sense of responsibility he must have felt. This snapshot not only showcases a moment frozen in time but also serves as a reminder of how different transportation was during this era. Trains were an integral part of people's lives - connecting communities and facilitating journeys across vast distances. It is fascinating to witness someone like Ted actively participating in ensuring smooth operations for these vital modes of travel. The photograph exudes nostalgia and prompts us to reflect upon our own experiences with public transport. It reminds us that behind every journey lies countless individuals working tirelessly behind-the-scenes to make it possible. Thanks to NCJ's impeccable photography skills, we are granted access into this intimate glimpse of history – capturing both the essence of a hardworking student fulfilling their duties and preserving memories that will endure for generations to come.
