LMS Route: Evesham to Birmingham & the SMJ Railway

Broom Junction Station: mrbj1355a

Close up of image 'mrbj1355' showing the LMS Banana train standing at Broom Junction ready to be taken forward to London. Whilst the GWR had a more direct route from Bristol to London this advantage was lost because the MR's At Pancras goods sidings were close to the Banana Depot whilst the GWR had to tranship their vans across London thereby losing the advantage of the more direct route.
