EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the bustling scene at Calais station in 1905, a crucial hub for travellers journeying between England and France. The station served as a vital transfer point where passengers would switch from boat to train or vice versa, marking the beginning or end of their cross-channel voyage.
The historical significance of this transportation hub is evident in the architecture and activity depicted in the image. Passengers can be seen hurrying to catch their next mode of transport, while steam trains billow smoke in the background, ready to whisk them away on their onward journey.
The juxtaposition of land and sea transport highlights the importance of Calais station as a gateway between two nations, facilitating trade, tourism, and cultural exchange. This snapshot from over a century ago offers a glimpse into a bygone era when travel was slower-paced yet no less exciting.
With its timeless charm and rich history, this print from Mary Evans Picture Library serves as a poignant reminder of the enduring connections forged through transportation networks. It invites viewers to step back in time and imagine themselves embarking on an adventure across borders - just like countless travellers did at Calais station in days gone by.
