Looking along Chester Road station's down platform towards
Sutton Coldfield with Sheffield Road footbridge in the distance circa 1910. The
original 1863 buildings are nearest the camera on both the up and down
platforms. The other two timber built waiting rooms seen on the down platform
were added late in the 19th century when the number of commuters expanded
rapidly as Birmingham's industrial and commercial prosperity grew.
