EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in a nostalgic moment frozen in time, this print titled 'Two boys are watching out for trains at the derelict Heaton Railway Station on 4th September 1972' takes us back to a bygone era. The image transports us to an abandoned railway station, its windows shattered and walls marked with traces of vandalism. In this desolate setting, two young boys stand side by side, their faces filled with curiosity and excitement as they eagerly peer into the distance. The exact age of these adventurous souls remains unknown, but their youthful spirit shines through their eyes. It is the 1970s; public transport was still a lifeline for many communities, connecting people from all walks of life on countless journeys. These two boys symbolize that sense of wonderment and possibility that only railways can evoke. As they keep watch for approaching trains amidst the decaying infrastructure, one cannot help but be reminded of the resilience found within forgotten places. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder that even in neglect and decay, beauty can be discovered. Preserved by Memory Lane Prints under NCJ's lens, this remarkable snapshot invites us to reflect upon our own memories associated with train stations and public transportation during simpler times. It sparks nostalgia while also reminding us of the importance of cherishing our shared history.
