EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the summer of 1977, capturing a general view of the entrance to Longbenton Railway Station. The image reveals a scene that is both nostalgic and hauntingly derelict. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we are confronted with the remnants of an era long gone. The station's once vibrant facade now bears the scars of neglect and vandalism. Graffiti adorns every available surface, telling stories of rebellious youth who left their mark on this forgotten place. These bold strokes of color contrast sharply against the faded backdrop, creating a visual dichotomy that speaks volumes about societal shifts during this period. Longbenton Railway Station was once a bustling hub for commuters embarking on journeys across the region. Trains filled with passengers eager to reach their destinations would have passed through these very gates daily. Now, however, it stands as a poignant reminder of changing times and evolving modes of public transport. As we reflect upon this photograph by NCJ from Memory Lane Prints, our minds wander back to an era when train travel held great significance in people's lives. It serves as a testament to how quickly things can change and reminds us to cherish even seemingly ordinary moments before they become relics themselves.
