GWR Route: Banbury to Wolverhampton

Hatton Station: gwrhj107b

Close up of the main up platform, showing predominantly respectable male passengers alighting and the main station concourse

Close up of image 'gwrhj107' showing the main up platform, showing predominantly respectable male passengers alighting and the main station concourse top left. Both platforms were extended towards the road bridge in May 1892 and at the same time the short bay seen here was constructed. This work had necessitated reconstruction of the road bridge. The horsebox (telegraphic code PACO) in the bay may have been used to transport race horses to and from the nearby Warwick Racecourse.
