LMS Route: Evesham to Birmingham
Kings Norton Station: mrkn522a
This close up of image 'mrkn522' shows the structures on the
up platform which were demolished when the line was quadrupled in the 1930s.
Its not known which of the three were built first (the different designs
indicate that they were not built at the same time) but one would assume that
the brick built structure in the centre with its more complex design of hipped
roofs was the first.
However its the furthest and largest structure at the far
end which has the chimney indicating the provision of some comfort to
passengers in the winter. There appears to be two doors and at a guess one
waiting room would be for First Class passengers, the other being to the ladies
waiting room. Its not known what the nearest building was used for, the windows
to the front and side indicates it was light inside but there is no door
evident indicating its either on the other side or at back.
