Looking towards Birmingham from the Rugby end of the up platform
with the columns on the right remnants of the bomb damage. The roof was
demolished and were never replaced the railway chosing to add a new side
section where the platform. This view shows just how much shorter the down
platform was which caused all sorts of operational problems. The branch line to
Leamington, just out of view on the left, meant that the platform could never
be extended in this direction whilst Warwick Road bridge at the other end of
the platform limited options there too.
