DIDCOT RAILWAY CENTRE

11 August 2016: Visited the Museum and Archive at Didcot Railway Centre which holds a reserve collection of framed pictorial posters. In the photograph is the quad-royal sized "London Pride" depicting the Palace of Westminster by Frank Mason in 1946. Trustees and volunteers regularly work in the Annexe cataloging artefacts and performing conservation tasks. Didcot Railway Centre is a former Great Western Railway engine-shed and locomotive stabling point which has been converted into a railway museum and preservation engineering site, and is home to the Great Western Society's unique collection of steam engines, coaches, wagons, buildings and small relics.
