GWR Route: Banbury to Wolverhampton
Leamington Spa Station: gwrls224
Looking towards the Birmingham end of the up platform which
shows the middle section of the modified station train shed being demolished
circa 1937. The new station canopies which replaced the original structure were
significantly larger as well as being a better design to protect passengers
from the elements. John Copsey writes 'The up platform was 650 ft in length, of
which 360 ft was under cover, whilst the down platform was 670 feet long with
480 feet of it being covered by a canopy. Up and down bay platforms were
provided at the west (Warwick) end of the station for Stratford and Birmingham
services'.
