Two new portraits were unveiled on Friday 8th March at Filton Abbey Wood Station. The images are the latest addition to the popular Pioneers of the Railways gallery.
One of the latest additions is our very own chair Marion.
Marion has many roles and projects, her latest achievement added to her portfolio is becoming the first female leader of Sefton Council in 50 years.
Her portrait sits happily next to our late Marjorie Birch on the station, two very inspirational women.
