This series of illustrations depicts the chaotic scene of a railway strike in Glasgow, Scotland, in 1891. The images capture the tension and turmoil that engulfed the city during this significant industrial action. In the first sketch, a large crowd of passengers, many of them carrying luggage, gather at the central station, their faces etched with worry and frustration. The railway workers' strike had caused widespread disruption, leaving countless travelers stranded and delayed. The second illustration shows a group of excursionists, their excitement and anticipation turned to disappointment as they are forced to abandon their plans due to the strike. The once joyful occasion is now marred by the reality of the situation. The third sketch depicts a chaotic scene at the station, with crowds of people jostling and pushing to get information from the few railway officials present. The scene is one of confusion and uncertainty, as travelers seek answers to their pressing questions. The final illustration in this series shows Enoch, a railway worker, standing defiantly in the midst of the chaos. His determined expression and folded arms convey his unwavering commitment to the cause of the strike. The railway workers' action had far-reaching consequences, and these illustrations provide a fascinating glimpse into the events that unfolded during this pivotal moment in Scottish railway history. These sketches offer a unique and captivating insight into the railway strike in Glasgow in 1891, a time of disruption and uncertainty that challenged the status quo and left a lasting impact on the city and its people.
