GWR Route: Banbury to Wolverhampton
GWR Route: North Warwickshire Line
Tyseley Station: gwrt1355
View of Tyseley Station's down relief platform with a GWR
steam railcar standing at the platform waiting for the right way to Moor Street
circa 1908. Whilst in later years the opposite line on the same island platform
was the up relief, when the station first opened it was the down main line and
remained such until 1913 when the lines were swapped over. The covered
passenger staircase was deliberately designed to land on the platform
immediately under the platform canopy thereby ensuring that passengers were
fully protected from inclement weather.
