Little bit of history achieved yesterday.

Here is a video of the very first train ever to reach Broadway, GWSR:
The train comes to rest in platform 1, opposite the station building. Two members of the Broadway group have come out to watch this momentous event. Look at the delight on their faces!
Here is the first ever train into our very own Broadway station, headed by E 6036. What a period scene - replica singal box from Shirley, GWR running in board and replica lamp posts, bullhead rail on wooden sleepers, spearhead fencing, Henley in Arden footbridge, and a station building with a rivetted, faithful reproduction of the original canopy. We want this to look right.
Our mess coach came to a stop right by the building, so all we had to do was get in like a normal passenger. What a strange feeling...
