Tomorrow, Monday, a series of 10 normal passenger trains (beginning with the Night Riviera Sleeper) will bring poppy wreaths from all parts of the GWR network to London Paddington station.
They will be laid in a service of remembrance at 10.45am at the Great Western Railway (the original GWR) war memorial on Platform 1.
At least in Devon and Cornwall they will be loaded by members of the RNLI (Royal National Lifeboat Institution) in a brief ceremony at each station.
This modern tradition started in 2020 when Covid restrictions inhibited in person attendance, but was so well received that the tradition grows each year.
