LMS Route: Rugby to Leamington Spa (Avenue)
Birdingbury Station: lnwrbird3971
Looking towards Rugby from the Leamington end of the down
platform shortly after the goods yard had been lifted. Whilst clean the station
has an air of neglect and was closed within a few years of the photograph being
taken. Preston and Powell Hendry state in their book LMS Stations Volume One
that 'had the line been built a decade earlier, lavish decoration on the
buildings might have been expected, but the LNWR was an early advocate of
economical styles'.
