On Saturday 9th September 2017, B17 SLT accepted an invitation from Friends of March Railway Station to be a part of their celebration of the 170th anniversary of the railway coming to March.
Besides the normal B17 SLT promotional display, we were able to show a considerable quantity of GER and LNER cast iron signs that drew considerable interest and also an extensive display of historical written material regarding the history of March's railway history, development, accidents and staff.
