EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling streets of Middlesbrough in 1973. The scene captures a truly extraordinary sight - a large load being carefully transported through Durham Street. The photograph showcases the sheer scale of this abnormal task, as an array of commercial lorries and trucks line the street, all working together to move this colossal cargo. Among them, we can spot the iconic Scammell truck from Pickfords, a name that brings back memories for many. The image is a testament to the ingenuity and resourcefulness of those involved in transporting such massive loads during that era. It serves as a reminder of how different our transportation methods were just decades ago. As we gaze at this snapshot frozen in time, it's hard not to be captivated by the unique blend of nostalgia and admiration it evokes. The busy street with its vintage vehicles transports us back to an era when scenes like these were more common but no less impressive. This print from Teesside Archive is not only a visual treat for history enthusiasts but also sparks curiosity about what might have been inside that enormous load and where it was headed. It stands as a remarkable piece capturing both an unusual moment in transport history and the spirit of industriousness that defined Middlesbrough during this period.
