GWR Routes: Banbury to Wolverhampton
GWR Routes: North Warwickshire Line
Moor Street Station: gwrms1709b
Close up of image 'gwr1709' showing the northern corner of
the concourse where the General waiting room and the Ladies waiting room were
situated. Next to the General waiting room door is a weighing machine with
potted plants either side. Despite this being wartime on the wall are adverts
for holiday destinations. West Country locations feature predominately with a
large poster advertising the Cornish Riviera and two smaller posters for
Pwllheli in North Wales and St Ives on the wall. A temporary board extolling
Cornwall and Devon now leans against the wall obscuring other posters. One
speculates that this board may have previously been positioned in the centre of
the concourse. In later days a Wymans bookstall occupied the site where this
board stands.
