EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from November 28th, 1986, we are transported back to a school project in Newcastle that truly got rolling. The image captures the essence of the 1980s with its vintage charm and derelict backdrop. At the forefront of the picture is Paul Hilditch, a determined student from Walker School, taking charge as he sits behind the wheel of a magnificent 1947 Aveling Barford steam roller. Surrounding him are three soldiers from the Royal Engineers - Sapper Henry Leadbitter, Sgt. Bruce Thomson, and Warrant Officer Raymond Glendinning. Together, these four men epitomize teamwork and camaraderie as they skillfully maneuver the heavy machinery into position. Their uniforms proudly display their affiliation with the military while hinting at their unknown ages. The steam roller's powerful engine stands as a testament to engineering marvels of yesteryears. This hobby-turned-school project showcases not only an appreciation for history but also highlights leisure activities that were popular during this era. As we gaze upon this remarkable scene frozen in time, it becomes evident that this photograph encapsulates more than just pushing an old machine; it captures moments filled with determination and passion for hands-on learning. It serves as a reminder of how school projects can ignite curiosity and create lasting memories for both students and educators alike. This incredible snapshot by NCJ transports us back to an era where pastimes like driving vintage vehicles brought joy amidst abandoned landscapes –
