The railways made it much easier to travel for work or leisure.
These leaflets from the early twentieth century show an annual leisure event put on for the workers in the Great Eastern Railway Mineral Office. They were made by hand and copied to be distributed among the workers. The level of detail and care in the leaflets suggest this was a much anticipated event in the workers' year.
