EDITORS COMMENTS
Stepping into the pages of history, Turbinia, the groundbreaking steam turbine-powered steamship, embarked on a momentous journey a century after her launch. In an awe-inspiring spectacle witnessed by crowds in Newcastle, England, this iconic vessel was gracefully transported from Exhibition Park to its new abode at the Museum of Science and Engineering (later renamed The Discovery Museum). Captured in this remarkable print is the monumental occasion that unfolded on 30th October 1994. As if defying time itself, Turbinia navigates through the bustling streets of Newcastle with utmost grandeur. A symbol of innovation and progress, she stands tall upon an articulated lorry specially designed for transporting such extraordinary loads. The image encapsulates not only a physical relocation but also pays homage to an era gone by – the vibrant nineties. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and determination while showcasing England's rich maritime heritage. Turbinia's move represents more than just transportation; it signifies preservation and reverence for our past achievements. This snapshot captures both the curiosity and admiration sparked among spectators witnessing this unusual sight unfold before their eyes. As we delve into this photograph from Memory Lane Prints, let us marvel at how far we have come since those pioneering days when Turbinia revolutionized shipping forever.
