EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph from the early 1920s, we find a scene of lost and left luggage at Crewe Railway Station. The title of this image, "Oh, Mr. Porter, what shall we do?" refers to the traditional English folk song "Onward, Christian Soldiers," in which the line "Mummys off to Birmingham and left us in Crewe" is sung. The puzzled expressions on the faces of the children in the photograph mirror the sentiments of the lyrics, as they stand next to a barrow filled with bundled-up luggage, waiting for their parents to return. The historical context of this image is significant, as it captures the experience of railway travel during a time when it was still a relatively new and exciting mode of transportation. The image also highlights the challenges and inconveniences of travel, such as the potential for lost or left luggage. Despite the hardships, the children in the photograph maintain a sense of curiosity and wonder, perhaps anticipating the adventures that await them on their outing to Birmingham. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the rich history of railway travel and the memories and experiences it has provided for generations.
