Birmingham New Street Station: lnwrbns_str1839

Looking from Queens Drive through the remains of the passenger footbridge and across the Eastern end of the LNWR portion of New Street station

Looking from Queens Drive through the remains of the passenger footbridge and across the Eastern end of the LNWR portion of New Street station on 22nd April 1965. This section of the footbridge crossing Queens Drive was originally covered by the glazed canopy seen in image 'lnwrbns_str1786' but as the footbridge would still be required in parts for a number of years a temporary roof was provided as seen above. Fittingly the original LNWR portion of the station was the last to be demolished and this photograph was taken as the original station was demolished.
