Railway station War Memorials

[bykerlads]

I was in London last weekend and noticed the splendid but sadly huge memorial to railway employees at Waterloo Station who had lost their lives in the service of their country. It's well worth a look.
Also, very impressed by Kings Cross station- they have an enormous poppy installed prominently in the new concourse. Very pleasing to see that temporary lists of the Fallen have been installed in the station, presumably because the original memorials have been temporarily removed during the renovations to the station entrances.

There is an impressive memorial to the GWR fallen at the side of Platform 1 at Paddington.

Derby Railway Station has a wonderful set of War Memorials along Platform 1, including if I remember rightly for the Boer War.  There is also a list available of people from the Midland Railway company who went to fight in WW1.

There's one on Exeter St.David's as well.

All those young lads, cut down in their prime.

Don't forget the GWR memorial on Taunton station. Whether or not it duplicates entries on the Paddington memorial is unknown to me.

There is a war memorial on the station at Stoke on Trent commemorating the employees of the North Satffordshire Railway who were killed in World War 1

I recall there being a Midland railway memorial at Lincoln St. Marks station, but that is 50 years ago. I believe it was removed at one stage while some work was done at the station. Hopefully it has been restored to its original location. If it is not already in existance i believe we need a location guide to railway war memorials, including those to individuals like the one at York to Mr. Milner who was killed in the Baedecker raid.

There is also the memorial in Victoria Station Manchester, again a huge number of men.
I would agree with Redroger that the railway memorials should be catalogued, if this has not already been done.
The way that a temporary memorial has been set up in Kings Cross suggests that the appropriate awareness and respect exists nowadays - let's hope that no similar memorials were "lost" in the past.
