Railway posters have a strong appeal to today’s audience, but what exactly explains this ongoing interest? Enduring images of iconic locomotives, bathing beauties, and characters such as Sunny South Sam are proof of the creativity of the railway company marketing departments. These posters not only tell us about railway history and technology, architectural and engineering achievements but also about the cultural and social importance of the railways.
The impact of the railway industry on our cities and coastlines, as well as on the development of leisure time and holiday resorts, can be seen in the recurring images of hikers, bathers, and picturesque tourist destinations. This book examines the evolving styles and purposes of the railway poster from the early pre-grouping era through the interwar 'golden age' and the nationalized British Railways.
