EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in this vintage print by NCJ, we see Mr. Matt Copeman fully engrossed at the controls of one of the locomotives owned by the Chester-le-Street Model Engineering Society. The snapshot takes us back to a sunny day on June 4th, 1972, at Riverside Park in town. The miniature engines and trains showcased here were a testament to the passion for railways that brought together a small group of people from different age ranges. As Mr. Copeman skillfully maneuvers the locomotive along its track, his focused expression reveals both expertise and joy in driving these intricate models. Surrounded by fellow enthusiasts and curious onlookers, this scene captures the essence of public transport journeys from days gone by. The atmosphere is filled with excitement as children and adults alike marvel at these impressive creations chugging along their rails. Intriguingly, amidst all the action, our attention is drawn to Mr. Copeman's pipe-smoking habit—a common sight during those times when smoking was more socially accepted. This detail adds an extra layer of nostalgia to this charming moment frozen in time. This image transports us back to an era where model engineering societies like Chester-le-Street thrived as hubs for railway enthusiasts who found solace and camaraderie within their shared love for trains.
