The event even had a rather more Royal affair to it as Her Royal Highness, Queen Camilla, Queen consort of the United Kingdom was also in attendance

Following the ceremony wreaths from around The Wales and Western network and the wider rail industry were placed around the War Memorial on Platfom 1 at Paddington

It must be noted that it will look at its best in the dark with the evening light glow around it

Today was the annual Poppies to Paddington event; born out the pandemic as an idea from the Veterans Charity and held annually since.

800306 has had a special livery for a number of years, but this year has been totally repainted and had a fresh roll of honour decals added
