EDITORS COMMENTS
The platform of the now derelict Manors Railway Station on 1st July 1985 captures a haunting glimpse into the past, evoking memories of a bygone era. This poignant print transports us back to an age when railways were bustling hubs of public transport and journeys were filled with anticipation. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness the decay that has befallen this once vibrant station. The crumbling platform stands as a silent witness to years of neglect and abandonment. Graffiti sprawls across its walls, revealing acts of vandalism that have marred its beauty. The image speaks volumes about the changing landscape of transportation in the 1980s. As trains became less popular and road travel gained prominence, many railway stations like Manors fell victim to disuse and eventual dereliction. Yet, amidst the desolation, there is an undeniable sense of nostalgia that tugs at our hearts. This photograph serves as a reminder not only of physical deterioration but also symbolizes the passage of time itself. It prompts us to reflect on how society evolves and moves forward while leaving behind remnants from its past. Staff's skillful capture allows us to immerse ourselves in this momentary glimpse into history – where echoes from bustling platforms still resonate faintly through faded paintwork and broken windows. It invites contemplation on our own journeys through life: how we navigate change, adapt to new modes of transport, or perhaps even find beauty within decay.
