EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the bustling Tram Subway DP130512, located beneath Kingsway in Holborn, Camden, London. Stepping into this underground marvel feels like stepping into a different era altogether. The platform area below Kingsway is beautifully captured here, showcasing the intricate architecture and design that was prevalent during its construction in 1906. Once a vital mode of transport for Londoners, trams operated through this very subway until 1952 when they were sadly withdrawn from service. This image serves as a poignant reminder of an era long gone but not forgotten. What adds an intriguing touch to this photograph are the authentic 1940s posters adorning the walls. These posters were actually part of a film set, bringing an air of nostalgia and cinematic charm to the scene. They provide a glimpse into what life might have been like during those wartime years. Derek Kendall's skillful lens has perfectly captured both the grandeur and history encapsulated within this tram subway tunnel. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and innovation while also evoking feelings of curiosity about how people once navigated these tunnels on their daily commutes. As we gaze upon this remarkable image, we can't help but be transported back in time ourselves - imagining the hustle and bustle of commuters eagerly awaiting their trams or simply admiring the architectural beauty surrounding them.
