November 19, 2020“The railway was crucial in WWII … keeping the heart of Britain going.”
This year marks 75 years since the end of WWII, in which the railway played a crucial role, and for which we say thank you to all those who served and sacrificed.
At the outbreak of war, railway companies evacuated 1.3 million children and some adults from big towns and cities.
