BRISTOL Temple Meads celebrated its 180th anniversary with a special socially distanced event on September 1.
Network Rail and Great Western Railway used the event to showcase the station's historic status and a bright future on the eve of a £24million, two-year renovation starting later this year.
The two-year programme will involve extensive metal and woodwork repairs and the complete re-glazing of the Grade I-listed roof and platform canopies, as well as a new colour scheme.
