GWR Route: Banbury to Wolverhampton

Solihull Station: gwrs274a

Close up showing Solihull station's new Up Relief and Main platforms, platform furniture and the passenger facilities

Close up of image 'gwrs274' showing Solihull station's new Up Relief and Main platforms, platform furniture and the passenger facilities. The station's platform lighting and station nameboards utilised concrete uprights although the box containing the telephone for contacting the signal box is still mounted on a timber post. The location of the road under-bridge which lay at the Leamington end of the station is marked by the steel girder seen between the two sets of rails. The barrow crossing used by station staff to move luggage and parcels is seen just in front of the girder. Passengers however were required to use the passenger underpass which was sited under the nearest platform structure.
