Meeting the ambulance train.

Nurses at Huddersfield station in November 1917. In the First World War more than a million casualties were loaded on to thousands of trains in Dover. This image is part of the National Railway Museum archive in York. "The Times" 17-04-2014

Some of the nurses appear to be holding charity collection tins? American and British flags are also displayed? The USA had entered WW1 in April 1917.
