OK - cool. I'll have a look.
Sorry if people think this could go better in the "Speculative Ideas" section, and if they do, I can make a new thread for it there, what would happen to the roadbridge at the London end of the station in the event of the Cotswold Line being electrified? I understand that this is an event which is probably not going to happen in the near future, but if it does, surely the roadbridge will have to be changed quite a bit? It has been there for many, many years (as long as the station I assume) and it isn't designed for wires.

I think there are other things that are higher priorities for spending than replacing fairly new new nameboards - Cholsey station still has some that must be about 30 years old and were put up by BR Network South East.

While I believe the posts of the running-in boards at Kingham are indeed the GWR originals, the nameboards themselves are not - hardly surprising when you see the amount of information there was on them in the past when it was a junction station

The rotten nameboards at Kingham were replaced by new matching copies in Thames Trains days.
