Title: A Request =] Post by: Ollie on November 14, 2007, 22:05:42 Hi All.
As part of my site (iworkforfgw.com) I am looking to do pages on each station of the FGW Network. What I am looking for is if any of the members on here as a picture of their local station, or any station on the network, and this can be included on the appropriate page, credited to the image taker. Also if you could do a brief paragraph on the station such as what you think of it? Any questions? Pictures? And paragraphs to: ollie@iworkforfgw.com Much appreciated. Title: Re: A Request =] Post by: Shazz on November 14, 2007, 22:11:16 does cardiff central count?
its not a FGW station, but is serviced by FGW. so unsure what you're after Title: Re: A Request =] Post by: Mookiemoo on November 15, 2007, 00:20:54 Can do worcester shrub hill - but I think that may be a london midland station these days
If you want shrub, do you want the frontage or the platforms And is a 3mp phone camera an acceptable image Title: Re: A Request =] Post by: TerminalJunkie on November 15, 2007, 00:43:06 There are lots (and lots and lots...) of photos of stations in Devon and Cornwall here (http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~owend/interests/rail/regions/sw.html).
Title: Re: A Request =] Post by: grahame on November 15, 2007, 06:56:13 Are you looking for architecure, people using the station, surrounds, trains ;-) ..... there might be some useful pictures here in our indexes ...
