Bedford station

[NW Mailing List]

The present owners of the Bedford station, are, at least, the second  
owners, perhaps third. The original developers had the paintings  
done, and purchased a number of artifacts for decoration from various  
folks, including myself. I doubt anyone was consulted regarding the  
mural and any form of accuracy, and it looked sort of like Great  
Northern to me, but that was a few years back I was last there.
