EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1938, when the London and North Eastern Railway (LNER) offered exciting holiday excursions to the picturesque coastal town of Cleethorpes. The image showcases a bustling scene at Sheffield Victoria Station, as eager travelers gather in anticipation of their journey. The platform is alive with activity, as families and friends bid farewell to their loved ones embarking on this delightful adventure. The LNER poster prominently displayed in the background serves as a visual reminder of the destination's allure, enticing passengers with promises of sun-soaked beaches and endless seaside fun. From Deepcar to Woodhouse, various stations along the route are mentioned on this vintage poster, highlighting that these excursions were accessible for people from different parts of Sheffield. This snapshot captures not just a moment frozen in time but also reflects an era where railway travel was both practical and enchanting. Preserved by Sheffield Libraries, this original photograph offers a glimpse into an era long gone but still cherished by those who appreciate history's rich tapestry. It reminds us of simpler times when train journeys were eagerly anticipated adventures filled with excitement and wonder. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Sheffield City Archives, we can't help but be transported back to an age where Cleethorpes beckoned like a hidden gem waiting to be discovered – promising unforgettable memories for all who embarked on these LNER holiday excursions.
