GWR Route: North Warwickshire Line
Shirley Station: gwrsh489a
Close up of image 'gwrsh489' showing the up platform
building showing the two waiting rooms and the gentlemen's toilet and poster
boards with only a few posters on show. In this close up there is more evidence
that the station has just been constructed and perhaps has yet to receive its
first passengers. The Gentlemen's toilet was accessed via an entrance in the
end gable wall of the building with the louvered windows providing an
indication to their whereabouts and protected by a modesty screen. The
lampposts on the platform and the lamps hanging from the canopy appear to be
lit by oil which due to Shirley's then rural location is not a surprise.
