EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Memory Lane Prints takes us back to the 5th of July, 1964, at Follingby level crossing. The image showcases a groundbreaking innovation in railway safety - the new type of automatic barrier. In this snapshot frozen in time, we are transported to an era where railways played a vital role in public transport and journeys across the country. The scene is set with gleaming rails stretching into the distance, promising exciting adventures and connections to far-off destinations. The focal point of the photograph is undoubtedly the impressive automatic barrier itself. Standing tall and sturdy, it serves as a guardian between two worlds - separating bustling roads from roaring wagons on their tracks. Its sleek design hints at modernity creeping into traditional transportation systems. As we delve deeper into this historical moment captured by NCJ's lens, our imagination runs wild with thoughts of trains passing by, their rhythmic chugging resonating through nearby fields and towns. We can almost hear bells ringing and see flashing lights warning pedestrians and motorists alike. This print not only commemorates an important milestone in railway technology but also invites us to reflect on how advancements like these have shaped our lives today. It stands as a testament to human ingenuity and progress while reminding us of simpler times when train travel was both practical necessity and thrilling adventure.
