EDITORS COMMENTS
In this vintage photograph, we are transported back to the bustling Kings Cross station on a summer day in 1933. The image captures Captain G. De Havilland, the esteemed winner of the prestigious Kings Cup Air Race that year, as he stands tall and proud amidst a crowd of admirers. Dressed in his distinguished uniform, he exudes an air of confidence and accomplishment. The scene unfolds with Captain De Havilland assuming another role - that of a special guest tasked with sending off the legendary "Flying Scotsman" train on its inaugural non-stop journey from London to Edinburgh for the season. A symbol of speed, power, and elegance in locomotion during those times, this momentous occasion is met with great anticipation by both passengers and railway enthusiasts alike. As we delve into this remarkable snapshot frozen in time by Between The Wars' photographic lens, it serves as a reminder of an era characterized by progress and innovation. It encapsulates the spirit of adventure that permeated through aviation races and rail travel during these interwar years. This print from TopFoto's archive collection allows us to witness history unfold before our eyes - capturing not only significant events but also preserving memories that continue to inspire generations today.
