I was at Richmond today and was amazed to see some fantastic 1980s BR posters on the staircase down to Platform 1, revealed by the temporary removal of the modern advertising display cases for the walls to be painted. Quite interesting that all are for BR products/services/information and none of them are for other companies' products/services as would be the case today.
I managed to take pictures of most of them: I particularly like the 'Open & Shut' poster explaining the new-fangled power operated doors to passengers more used to slam doors. And, according to wikipedia, Winnersh Triangle station opened presumably on time in May 1986, as predicted by the poster!
How many do you remember?
