LMS Route: Evesham to Birmingham

Broom Junction Station: mrbj1320a

Close up showing the station's name board with a separate reference to the Stratford Midland Junction Railway

Close up of image 'mrbj1320' showing the station's nameboard with a separate reference to the Stratford Midland Junction Railway. Until this photograph came to light it hadn't been realised, at least by this author, that a separate board had been incorporated into the station's name board to advertise the connection to the Stratford on Avon Midland Junction Railway. The actual wording on the board reads 'For Stratford on Avon Midland Junction Railway'. This supplementary name board is evident in earlier views, see images 'mrbj537a' and 'mrbj156a' but was to far away to see any writing. The LMS' later station board seen in image 'mrbj538' provided both the station name and the reference to the Stratford on Avon Midland Junction Railway all on one name board.
