Poppies to Paddington is the annual commemoration remembering those from World War 1, World War 2 and conflicts since who fought and those who made the ultimate sacrifice. Poppy wreaths from around the GWR network will be collected by designated timetabled trains which will arrive into Paddington station before 1100.
This year, the event is expanded into a national event to remember the important role that railways and its people made during wartime.
