EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Memory Lane Prints takes us back to the picturesque countryside of Sandy Lane, near Wetheral, on a sunny day in July 1962. The focal point of the image is the quaint level crossing that stands proudly amidst its rural surroundings. Its wooden gates are closed, signaling an imminent train passing through this idyllic spot. Nestled beside the crossing is a charming house where the keeper resides. With its white-washed walls and neatly trimmed garden, it exudes a sense of tranquility and warmth. One can only imagine what life was like for the keeper living so close to this bustling railway line. The rails leading up to and beyond the crossing stretch into infinity, symbolizing endless journeys taken by trains throughout history. This snapshot captures not just a moment frozen in time but also represents an era when public transport played a vital role in connecting communities across vast distances. Transport enthusiasts and nostalgia seekers alike will appreciate this glimpse into 1960s Britain – an era characterized by steam locomotives chugging along scenic routes, carrying passengers on their daily adventures or simply commuting between towns. Preserved with care by NCJ at Memory Lane Prints, this print serves as both a window into our past and a reminder of how far we've come in terms of transportation technology. It invites us to reflect upon simpler times while appreciating the beauty found within everyday scenes such as this one at Sandy Lane's level crossing.
