Description

Scenes from the 1911 Transport Strike. In London, police are seen escorting horse-drawn wagons along a main streer as they move supplies from Kings Cross Station. In Liverpool, soldiers on horseback line the street as empty wagons pass by. Crowds are seen walking along a road, with the occasional scuffle breaking out, and a large crowd watch as a procession of mounted soldiers pass by.
