LMS Route: Birmingham New Street to Harborne

Harborne Station: lnwrh71

The view, taken on the last day of passenger services, looking from the Hagley Road end of the station towards the buffer stops. Being a single platform terminus, a relatively rare occurrence, the station only required two signals, a home and a starter, the latter seen on the left. To the left of the signal is the landing where the horse box was positioned as seen in image 'lnwr68'. This view shows what is thought to be the parcel shed, the structure with a curved roof, the gas lighting being both lamp posts placed at intervals along the length of the platform and suspended lamps from the glazed canopy. 24th November 1934
