EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, a double-decker bus bravely pushes through a dense snow blizzard as it makes its way towards the picturesque town of Reigate, Surrey during the 1960s. The bus, its windows fogged up and covered in snow, battles against the relentless winter weather as it navigates the winding country roads. The trees lining the route are bent under the weight of the snow, their branches reaching out like skeletal fingers against the grey sky. The road is barely visible, blanketed in a thick layer of white, and only the occasional car can be seen making its way through the storm. The bus's headlights pierce the darkness, illuminating the snowy landscape as passengers huddle inside, no doubt grateful for the warmth and shelter from the biting cold. Despite the challenging conditions, the bus driver remains focused, determined to reach their destination. The image captures the spirit of resilience and determination of public transport during the harsh winter months, as well as the beauty and serenity of a snow-covered landscape. This photograph is a poignant reminder of a bygone era, when travel was more challenging and the elements played a greater role in our daily lives. It also highlights the importance of public transport in connecting communities, even in the most adverse weather conditions. This image, taken in the 1960s, is a testament to the enduring spirit of the people of Surrey and their ability to weather even the most extreme weather.
