As some of you may know,  Andrew Griffiths, formerly of Wessex Trains and FGW (First Great Western), is now based at Kirkby Stephen station on the Settle & Carlisle.

He and his wife Rachel run a business, ImageRail, which among other things, sells railway memorabilia from time to time.  Their stock includes a lot of station signs from 80s - 00s from stations on the Severn Beach Line, some Devon & Cornwall stations and a number of Northern stations.  The full list is here  http://www.imagerail.com/SignsListing.pdf

Courtesy of Andrew and Rachel, you can also stay in their self catering accommodation at the station, more details http://www.imagerail.com/

I would imagine Andrew is enjoying a much quieter life up on the S&C (Settle and Carlisle ) after being the person that had to deal with most of the flack that came FGW (First Great Western)'s way with the December 2006 timetable change and shortening of local services.
