EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the spirit of resilience and camaraderie during the General Strike of 1926, as these volunteer bus drivers, believed to have come from Oxford, Cambridge, and other "health resorts," bring much-needed transportation to the streets of London. Amidst the industrial unrest and work stoppages, these knights of the road demonstrated remarkable efficiency and endurance, providing a vital service to the city's inhabitants. Their courteous and courageous actions were a beacon of hope during this tumultuous time, and their service was only surpassed by that of their comrades on the tubes and trains. This historical image serves as a testament to the indomitable nature of the human spirit and the power of community during times of adversity. The volunteer drivers' unwavering commitment to their duty and the smiles on their faces remind us that even in the face of great challenges, there is always reason to remain optimistic.
