GWR Route: North Warwickshire Line

Yardley Wood Platform: gwryw528

GWR stations and trains

This view looking towards Birmingham shows the once rural area is now developed with large houses on the road behind the station. Of interest is that the station sign reads 'Yardley Wood Platform' demonstrating that GWR Platforms were not always basic station facilities. The original bridge, a hump back bridge, has been replaced a steel girder bridge alongside of which appears to be a services bridge for carrying water, drainage etc over the railway.
