EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the 1970s where a young seven-year-old boy named Graham Welsh of Wallsend experiences an extraordinary adventure. Seated proudly on a one-third scale steam engine, Graham takes the driving seat with sheer excitement radiating from his face. This time, it's different for him as he indulges in this unique chair that brings him joy and wonder. The mastermind behind this magnificent creation is none other than Mr Fred Horseman, who not only built and owns the steam engine but also happens to be Graham's dentist. As they participate in the Steam Traction Rally at Corbridge on June 5th, 1976, Mr Horseman shares valuable instructions with his young co-pilot. Surrounded by a large group of people comprising children and adults alike, this snapshot captures the essence of leisurely hobbies enjoyed by individuals across generations. The mixed age range reflects how such pastimes can bring people together regardless of their differences. Dressed in overalls resembling those worn by professional engineers, Graham embodies pure fascination as he embraces his role as a miniature engineer for the day. The vintage charm exuded by the steam traction engine adds an extra layer of nostalgia to this enchanting scene. This remarkable photograph serves as a testament to the power of imagination and showcases how simple pleasures like model engines can create lasting memories that transcend time.
