This poster made me smile when I went down to Oldfield park for the 6:58 to Westbury this morning:



It's great to see a lot of community involvement in local stations like this. Big thanks to FGW, everyone involved, and of course the kids who designed those great pictures  Grin

Oldfield Park Station has received a makeover just in time for this year's Britain in Bloom competition. And it is all thanks to a green-fingered resident.

June Player, who lives near the station, has been spending her spare time watering the flowers she has planted on the platform. Twice a day the 61-year-old packs her shopping trolley with old milk cartons filled up with water. She then pushes the trolley loaded with more than eight four-pint bottles to the station to water the flowers.

June, who takes her dog for a walk past the station every day, decided to transform the station after noticing it was in need of a bit of attention.
