LMS Route: Rugby to Wolverhampton LMS Route: Nuneaton to
Leamington
Coventry Station: lnwrcov636
View of a four-car DMU standing at the new up platform with
the new concourse structure in the background and the island platforms yet to
be built. The rebuilding of the station required the contractors to phase in
new facilities as and when the old ones were demolished. Essentially the
original up platform remained in use for the majority of the time because much
of it was retained as part of the new station. The removal of the original down
platform only took place after its replacement, the new platform 4, was
complete. The island platforms which were numbered 2 and 3, were constructed
after this phase and in the above photograph are yet to be started.
