    When war was declared between Great Britain and Germany on 4th August 1914, it was trains that enabled the rapid mobilisation of the British forces and their equipment to France.

    The centenary is marked on 10th August, when 100 years to the day the first troops mobilised at London's railway stations to travel to the South Coast before onward travel to France, and to mark the occasion and the rail industry's critical role in the War, the Rail Delivery Group and Network Rail are hosting a rolling stations exhibition that will tour the country over the next four years.
