EDITORS COMMENTS
This litho print titled "Guard signalling to a train driver to start the engine" takes us back in time to the early 20th century on the London, Midland and Scottish Railway. The image showcases a moment of communication and coordination between a guard and a train driver, as they prepare for departure. Illustrated by the English School, this artwork was featured in Cecil J Allen's book "Railways of Today" published around 1933. It beautifully captures the essence of railway travel during that era. The scene unfolds at a bustling station building, where passengers eagerly await their journey. The guard stands on the platform, holding up his flag to signal the driver inside the locomotive cabin. With precision and expertise, he directs the driver to start the engine, setting in motion an intricate dance of gears and wheels. The attention to detail is remarkable; from the period clothing worn by workers and passengers alike, to small elements like flags fluttering in the wind. This print offers us not only a glimpse into transportation history but also serves as a testament to human ingenuity and collaboration. Preserved within private collections today, this litho print reminds us of Britain's rich railway heritage while celebrating those who played vital roles behind-the-scenes - ensuring safe journeys for countless travelers across Great Britain's rail network.
