Lest we forget

Lest we forget
The archway leading from the platform into the booking hall of Stoke-on-Trent railway station war forms the memorial to those employees of the North Staffordshire Railway who fell in the Great War of 1914 - 1918. Their names are recorded on brass plaques on either side of the arch. This being Armistice Day in 2014 there are wreaths recently placed above both plaques.

Thank you for posting this. I just recently heard about the BBC series on the importance of the railways in WWI, will hopefully be able to see the series one of these days.
