EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 18th of April, 1973, where we find ourselves standing at the now disused Carville Railway Station in Wallsend. The image captures a general view of this once bustling station, frozen in time. The scene is filled with an air of nostalgia as we observe two men on the platform, their faces weathered by unknown age but undoubtedly carrying stories from countless journeys taken on these very tracks. The absence of any trains suggests that diesel locomotives may have been a common sight here during its operational days. As our gaze wanders across the frame, it becomes evident that Carville Railway Station has fallen into a state of dereliction. Its worn-out buildings and neglected surroundings speak volumes about its abandonment and serve as a reminder of how public transport infrastructure can change over time. Transporting us back to the 1970s, this print evokes memories of an era when railway stations were vital hubs for communities; places where people embarked on adventures or simply commuted to work. It serves as a poignant reminder that progress often comes at the cost of losing cherished landmarks like this one. Captured by NCJ for Memory Lane Prints, this photograph invites us to reflect upon not only the history embedded within these walls but also the impact that railways had on shaping society's mobility and connectivity throughout generations past.
