Sold by Mighty Ape
Thousands of summer holidaymakers, laden with heavy luggage, would pour into the seaside resorts of Bridlington, Filey and Scarborough in the post-war heyday of the scenic Yorkshire Coast Rail Line. Eager Barrow Boys and Girls, rushing forward with barrows made from a couple of wheels off a pram and a few bits of wood nailed together, would shout, ‘Carry your case, sir?’ There were good days for the youngsters: ‘They gave me five shillings, it was like finding a pot of gold.’ There were bad days: ‘After being given a measly sixpence (for a 4-mile journey), I decided I would be unavailable for the return trip.’
There were hard days: ‘By 2pm I was satisfied with my takings … then there was the six-mile bike ride home.’ There were life lessons to be learned: ‘Customers were generous at the start of their holiday … by the end, they might have spent all their money’, ‘It taught us to stand on our own two feet and experience some independence.’
But most of all, there were happy days: ‘These were some of the happiest days of my life, ‘
‘Great times; halcyon days.’
