Alcester Station - GWR Shed: gwr-mra549
View of the derelict shed adjacent to Alcester Junction with
the wooden doors and water tank still retaining the distinctive Great Western
painting policy. Colour No.3 (dark stone) was used for any raised framing,
structural iron and woodwork and low level planking on timber structures or
doors, while Colour No.2 (light stone) was used in any panels and at high level
on timber walls or doors (Colour No.1 was the undercoat). These stone shades
were produced by adding varying amounts of iron oxide to a white lead base.
