EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the golden era of travel, specifically to the years 1936-1937. The image showcases a stunning LNER poster created by Leonard Cusden, commissioned by London & North Eastern Railway (LNER) to entice travelers towards the picturesque coastal town of Redcar in Yorkshire. The vibrant colors and intricate details in this artwork transport us straight into a scene reminiscent of a carefree summer day at the beach. The sandy shores stretch out before us, inviting visitors to bask in the sun's warm embrace. People clad in fashionable swimming costumes from the 1930s frolic along the coast, their laughter carried away by gentle sea breezes. Redcar's idyllic seaside charm is beautifully captured through Cusden's artistic vision. The poster effortlessly captures both nostalgia for an era gone by and an enduring appeal that continues to draw visitors today. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of history preserved within National Railway Museum's Pictorial Collection, we are reminded not only of Redcar's allure but also of how railway companies once sought to promote destinations with such exquisite artistry. This print serves as a testament to both Cusden's talent as an artist and LNER’s commitment to showcasing Britain’s most enchanting locations. In this single frame frozen in time, we can almost hear the distant sound of crashing waves and feel ourselves being transported back to an era when train travel was not just a means of transportation but also an invitation
