A couple of hundred people gathered at York’s railway war memorial on a bright but nippy November 11, for a service that marked the 100th anniversary of the memorial’s unveiling.
The memorial itself shone, following a recent clean by Network Rail. I tip my hat to NR - I didn’t think it would manage this (RAIL 1021), given that York city council only authorised the work on October 16.
