LMS Route: Evesham to Birmingham

Redditch Station: mrred1397

An Edwardian photograph of Redditch station's staff with the Station Master seated in the centre. To the station master's left, wearing the trilby style of hat, is the Goods Agent, a very important man being responsible for generating revenue from goods traffic into and out of Redditch. The lack of badges or other markings on jackets makes it difficult to identify whether the majority of the above personnel are station staff or from the goods yard. Whilst station staff are easily distinguishable because of their headwear the non uniformed people may still be station staff but not wearing regulation hats, being on their way home for example.
