His work extended beyond just railway posters; he also designed stunning artworks for other prominent railway companies such as London & North Western Railway and Southern Railway. This print is a testament to both Wilkinson's artistic prowess and LMS' commitment to promoting travel experiences through visually striking advertisements. It serves as a reminder of an era when steamers like SS Hibernia were integral parts of transportation networks, connecting people across vast distances.
