Icknield Port Road Station: lnwripr2182
View of the station's second single line platform and the
inclined pathway up to Icknield Port Road on 7th May 1929. As seen in image
'lnwripr2181' the platform was widened out to accommodate a series of small
buildings with the bank of the cutting retained by a thick brick wall. Why the
railway chose to erect several structures instead of just one is not known. The
booking office appears to be at the Icknield Port Road end of the platform with
the ladies waiting room and then the gentlemen's toilets next - both are signed
- followed by two structures presumably for parcels and stores.
