EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1885 by an English photographer from the 19th century, transports us back to a bustling railway station. The image titled "Platform Porters at a Railway Station" captures not only the hardworking porters but also glimpses of third-class passengers and other station workers. In this snapshot of history, we witness the society of that era and get a glimpse into public transport during those times. The platform porters stand tall with their uniforms, ready to assist travelers with their luggage as they embark on their journeys. Their dedication to providing excellent service is evident in their poised demeanor. The composition of this photo allows us to observe various aspects of daily life at the railway station. We catch sight of passengers waiting for trains, perhaps eager or anxious about reaching their destinations. Meanwhile, other workers can be seen going about their duties diligently. Transportation has always played a vital role in connecting people and facilitating movement within cities and countries alike. This photograph serves as a reminder of the crucial role public services like railways have played throughout history. Preserved by London Metropolitan Archives, City of London, this print offers us a window into the past - an opportunity to reflect on how far we have come while appreciating the foundations laid by those who came before us.
