LMS Route: The Shakespeare Route

Kineton Station: smjk86a

Close up of image 'smjk86' showing what is thought to be SMJ 2-4-0T No 5 at the head of the train in the early 1900s. There are two letters on the bufferbeam but they are too indistinct to make them out. The up platform waiting room is the original structure which being smaller than its replacement stood entirely on the platform. The colour scheme of the waiting room is darker than adopted on its larger replacement with a very dark colour on the fascia and a lighter colour on the sides. See image 'smjk26a' for a comparison.
