Carnforth Station

On the way back from the Lakes the gf got all excited after picking up a leaflet for Carnforth Railway Station- The place where they filmed the British classic Brief Encounter.




We therefore decided to visit and it was really interesting - learning about the station's place in the war effort (women used to give passing soldiers sandwiches and jam jars filled with tea) and it's nice to say I've visited somewhere of such importance to British Cinema (Excuse me now if it seems a bit gimmicky but I thought I'd show the pics in Monochrome to try and give off at least a little 40s magic...)
