Yesterday I went to Carnforth station where the film "Brief encounter" was made in 1945 It starred Trevor Howard and Celia Johnson. I have to say that I'm big fan of the film, and it made me cry when I watched it. its a bit of a girlie film though.

The station has been made to look as it was in the film, the bar looks very 1940s and you can have a coffee as you watch the trains rush by.

There were a lot of people dressed in 1940s clothes and jeeps. It was like a time warp. The atmosphere in the bar was amazing.

Some men looked like the Gestapo, they were sitting drinking coffee in white macs. some people dressed as Yanks they sat in their jeeps and my favourites were the people dressed as sailors.

A spiv came up to me inviting me to hold his baby in a gas mask suit, it was extremely heavy, he then asked me if I wanted to buy some American knickers.

I was given a flyer and this group of people must enjoy dressing up, I was invited to their next event and the guy said he would be a german that time.

I came away after spending a fortune in the gift shop, and wearing a badge saying "STATION MASTER" (well you have to join in a bit!)
