The commemorative plaque that sits on a stone plinth next to the A4 road bridge in the village of Box needs a little TLC. It was placed here in 1986 by BR to mark the 150th anniversary of the tunnel when the western portal was also restored. It's just such a shame that the tunnel and its surroundings (along with the historic section of the GWML) through Bath will be blighted by the forthcoming electrification.
