EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to a nostalgic era in the 1980s, where the sound of steam trains echoed through the picturesque seaside town of Southport. The locomotives from Southport's Steamport are once again gracing the rails this weekend, bringing joy and excitement to both young and old alike. In this particular snapshot frozen in time, we see a beaming Robert Gordon, only nine years old at the time, riding on an ex-LMS Jinty steam train. His eyes sparkle with pure delight as he experiences the thrill of being transported back in time aboard this magnificent piece of machinery. The date is April 2nd, 1983 - a day etched forever in Robert's memory as one filled with adventure and wonder. The vibrant colors of his surroundings reflect the cheerful atmosphere that permeated throughout Merseyside during these unforgettable moments. Richard Williams skillfully captures not just a photograph but also an essence - one that encapsulates the magic and allure of steam trains amidst a bustling seaside town. This image serves as a reminder that even though technology may have advanced over the years, there will always be something enchanting about these majestic machines chugging along on iron tracks. As we gaze upon this remarkable print from Memory Lane Prints, we can't help but feel transported ourselves - whisked away to an era when railways were more than just modes of transport; they were symbols of progress and dreams realized.
