Add ref to modern Rail Alphabet signage
On 4 February 1946 part of the platform collapsed onto the running line. Kidderminster Engineman Alfred Parker was commended for his vigilance in promptly halting his train clear of the obstruction.<ref>GWR Staffing Records held by National Archives, via Ancestry UK</ref>
