This is one of the few posters of the Alnwick and Cornhill Line from 100 years or so ago. Today the viaduct is still standing as you might expect, but inaccessible. While the routes of the railways make fantastic walking and cycling trails it is disappointing how these days many of the through routes are blocked off by "Private" encroachment and fencing off. While some of the old station buildings have been acquired and probably saved from decay and ruin by private acquisitions, some redevelopments are awful.
I absolutely love the artwork of old Railway and Travel Posters, and what a fantastic creation this is. The eye to generate the composition which isnt photographic reality of course, and the use of colour is nothing short of brilliant in my view.
