This charming depiction transports us back in time to the Roaring Twenties, an era of elegance, sophistication, and excitement.

Smartly dressed spectators, both men and women, are seen enjoying a leisurely lunch by the rails of the course, their table elegantly covered in a pristine white cloth. The sight of a vintage car parked nearby adds to the sense of opulence and exclusivity. The racecourse, bathed in the warm glow of the sun, is alive with the sounds and sights of the day's races. Horses and jockeys can be seen in the distance, their forms barely discernible against the backdrop of the grandstand. The atmosphere is one of anticipation and excitement, as the spectators eagerly watch the action unfold on the track. The illustration offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, providing a window into a bygone era of racing and society. The elegance and sophistication of the scene are a testament to the enduring appeal of the sport, and the tradition of picnicking at the races continues to this day. Howard K. Elcock's "On the Rails at Goodwood" is a beautiful and captivating illustration that perfectly encapsulates the spirit of the Goodwood meeting in 1928. It is a reminder of a time when racing was not just about the thrill of the sport, but also about the pleasure of sharing a picnic lunch with friends and family, all while enjoying the excitement of the races.
