EDITORS COMMENTS
Gavin East, project manager of the Railway Preservation Society, stands proudly beside Derwent II - a remarkable piece of history generously donated by engineering firm Whessoe. Captured on 20th May 1990, this print showcases the magnificent presence of Derwent II, an iconic diesel locomotive that once powered through the railways with sheer power and precision. Derwent II is no ordinary locomotive; it is an extraordinary 0-4-0 Ruston & Hornsby Diesel Electric built in 1949. With its robust construction and distinctive design, it served faithfully at Whessoe Engineering Ltd. , leaving an indelible mark on the industrial landscape. In this snapshot from the 1990s, Gavin East's passion for preserving railway heritage shines through as he poses alongside this marvel of engineering. The dedication and hard work put forth by individuals like Gavin ensure that these historical treasures continue to captivate future generations. This photograph not only captures a moment frozen in time but also symbolizes the enduring spirit of railway enthusiasts who strive to keep our transport heritage alive. It serves as a reminder that behind every locomotive lies a story waiting to be told – stories of innovation, progress, and human ingenuity. Thanks to Teesside Archive's Memory Lane Prints collection, we can now relish in this visual testament to our rich railway legacy. Let us cherish these images as they transport us back in time while inspiring us to appreciate both past achievements and future possibilities.
