EDITORS COMMENTS
In this heartwarming photograph from 1986, we see sixty-five-year-old Eddie Dyke, the chairman of the South Tynedale Railway Society, accompanied by his beloved teddy bear named Fred. With a beaming smile on his face and dressed in his railway uniform, Eddie is all set for an enchanting 30-minute round trip between Alston and Gilerdale. As Teddy Day approaches on April 13th, Eddie proudly showcases his affection for both steam engines and cuddly companions. The image captures a moment of pure joy as he embarks on this nostalgic journey through time. The badges adorning Eddie's uniform serve as tokens of pride and dedication to the South Tynedale Railway Society—an organization that preserves the rich heritage of public transport in Sunderland. His passion for trains shines through every whistle blown along the tracks. This print transports us back to the vibrant atmosphere of the 1980s—a decade characterized by its unique charm and sense of adventure. It encapsulates not only one man's love for railways but also highlights how simple pleasures like traveling with a treasured teddy bear can bring immense happiness. Preserved by NCJ in their Memory Lane Prints collection, this image serves as a reminder that age is no barrier to finding delight in life's little wonders—whether it be through vintage locomotives or cherished childhood toys.
