I’m pretending that Camden bus is a 1938 version of the N29, and there’s a cheeky chappie in a cable knit top and butcher’s hat absolutely ripped to the tits on ale, trying to eat a pork pie and chat up a wealthy dowager on her way to Westminster at the same time.

Each day when you post these, I mean to comment how much I enjoy these posts. Thanks.
FYI the photo of the steam locomotive at Waterloo, the photo was taken in 1924, not 1893. The photographer is Charles E. Brown. The boy is Robert Witt, who later emigrated to California. It became a popular PR poster for the Southern Railway, and has been reprinted many times.
