Paddington Station Band
The Great Western Railway and Paddington Borough Prize Silver Band
was established long before 1923. The Great Western Railway Staff
Military Band was founded about this time and would give Concerts on
the Station Lawn. The Great Western Railway was nationalised in 1948 to
become British Railway Western Region and during the 1990s was
privatised to become Network Rail and First Great Western.
Friday Evening Band Concert in the Station from 7.30pm
A different and varied Programme is performed each week of
Marches, selections from the Shows,
arrangements from the Classics and Popular Tunes.
