GWR will be naming a train the ‘Nancy Astor’ at a ceremony at Paddington Station, Platform 8,at 7am on 28 November.

The unveiling will take place at 1pm on Plymouth Hoe, one hundred years to the day since Nancy Astor won the Plymouth bi-election.<\/p>\n

Both ceremonies will be attended by the Astor family, project partners including representatives from the Astor Statue committee led by Alexis Bowater, the National Trust at Cliveden, the Parliamentary archives and Astor 100 project Lead Dr Jacqui Turner.<\/p>\n
