EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the 1970s, a time when steam engines and trains were still an integral part of public transport. The image showcases Steve Sandever, the job creation supervisor at Cornforth Steam-town, diligently inspecting the lubrication of the iconic Flying Scotsman on a memorable day - 12th May 1977. The composition captures Steve's undivided attention as he meticulously tends to the intricate machinery of this magnificent locomotive. With his oil can in hand, he ensures that every piston and wheel is properly lubricated for its forthcoming journey. His expertise and dedication shine through as he carries out this vital task with utmost care. The photograph exudes a sense of nostalgia and admiration for these powerful steam engines that once dominated our railways. It serves as a reminder of how far we have come in terms of transportation technology while also evoking a longing for simpler times when train journeys were filled with wonder and excitement. This black-and-white snapshot offers us a glimpse into an unknown age where one man alone could oversee such essential maintenance tasks on these colossal machines. It encapsulates not only the technical aspects but also the human connection between man and machine that made these trains so extraordinary. Overall, this print by NCJ beautifully immortalizes Steve Sandever's crucial role in preserving our railway heritage while celebrating the timeless charm of steam-powered engines.
