EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 1970s, capturing a general view of the derelict Willington Quay Railway Station. The image showcases the remnants of this once bustling transportation hub, now left in a state of abandonment and decay. The composition draws our attention to the desolate platform, where time seems to have stood still. We can almost imagine the echoes of footsteps that once filled these grounds as commuters hurriedly boarded trains for their journeys. The worn-out rails and tracks serve as a poignant reminder of the station's former importance in connecting people and places. A weathered fence surrounds the station, acting as both a physical barrier and symbolic representation of its forgotten existence. It stands tall against nature's attempts to reclaim what was once man-made, creating an intriguing contrast between human progress and nature's relentless persistence. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported back in time, witnessing history frozen within its frame. It serves as a testament to how public transport has evolved over decades while reminding us that even grand structures can succumb to neglect if not cherished. Through NCJ's lens, this print captures more than just bricks and mortar; it encapsulates nostalgia for an era gone by—a visual ode to all those who passed through these doors on their own personal journeys.
