Birmingham New Street Station: lnwrbns_str405b

Close up of image 'lnwrbns_405' platform 2 showing New Street No 3 signal cabin and the two signals controlling the passage of trains travelling towards the camera on the second and fourth tracks. In the centre of the four tracks are two water hydrants which presumably were used to top up the water tanks on board the carriages. There are few advertisements attached to the sides of the passenger footbridge. In the course of a few years the lattice steelwork seen on the sides would not be visible being covered with advertising.
