LMS Route: Rugby to Wolverhampton
Berkswell and Balsall Common: lnwrberk525b
This close up of image 'lnwrberk525' shows the up platform
building which accommodated the general waiting room, ladies waiting room and
toilet and the gentlemens toilet. The LMS encouraged their station staff
to keep their stations neat and tidy and this often saw the station staff
planting flowers and shrubs into prepared beds. The raised timber platform at
Berkswell prevented the staff from adopting such practices and therefore they
have had to make do with four half-barrels used as tubs.
