BR poster nostalgia at Huddersfield


Recommended Posts

As part of the ongoing station refurbishment, this week some old BR posters have seen the light of day for the first time in 40 years.

I thought they might evoke some memories so here are a selection. There are others, some rather more damaged.

Saw these a couple of weeks back and they were very interesting. I liked the one about how to open the doors of the new railbuses. Introduced when virtually everything was slam door we now have flipped that, with people unable to work out how to open doors on heritage railways.

Yes, they are. 

Sadly the classic greasy spoon station buffet inside is no more.

Going by the labelling it certainly looks like it's going to have the Ikea treatment.

Users of 'The Hurrier' will know that in reality it's the slowest train on the planet. But a good place to go if you want to travel in a Class 150/0.
