GWR Route: Banbury to Wolverhampton
Leamington Spa Station: gwrls2133a
Close up of image 'gwrls2133' showing the 1947 remodelled down
platform which included a new water crane, drain and brazier. The concrete
bunker would in the winter contain the coal required to keep the brazier alight
24 hours a day during very cold weather. Despite such precautions in very cold
weather the heat generated would not be enough to stop the water from freezing.
This would create severe problems for the operating department.
