EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by NCJ from Memory Lane Prints, we see Tyne and Wear County Industrial Archaeologist Ian Ayris immersed in a fascinating discovery. On the 15th of October 1996, Ayris finds himself standing on perfectly preserved wooden railway tracks that were hidden beneath colliery spoil from the former Lambton Cokeworks in Sunderland. Transport enthusiasts and history buffs alike will be captivated by this snapshot of a forgotten era. The image showcases the remnants of an intricate rail system that once played a crucial role in mining operations. These weathered wooden rails tell tales of countless trains hauling precious cargo through the industrial landscape. Ayris stands alone amidst mud and water, his presence highlighting both the scale and significance of this excavation project. As a mature Caucasian adult with years of experience as an industrial archaeologist, he exudes knowledge and passion for uncovering our past. The photograph captures not only the physical remnants but also evokes emotions associated with nostalgia and progress. It serves as a reminder that beneath layers of time lie stories waiting to be unearthed – stories that shape our understanding of industry, transportation, and human ingenuity. This remarkable image transports us back to the 1990s when wood was still used for railway tracks before modern materials took over. It invites us to ponder how these humble wooden rails supported an entire mining community's livelihood while leaving behind traces etched into history forever.
