Description - A sepia photo of a family feeding swans and ducks from the harbourside. Behind are yacht masts and probably one of the four Sealink-operated motor cruisers used on the lake. They were named 'Swan' 'Teal' 'Swift' and 'Tern'.
Lake Windermere was always a popular holiday or day trip destination, and the railways advertised access using their services throughout the twentieth century. The main cruise yachts on the lake were always owned by the railway companies, with Sealink becoming the shipping division of British Rail.
