LMS Route: Evesham to Birmingham

Alcester Station: mra133b

Close up of image 'mra133' showing the principle station facilities for passengers including waiting rooms, booking hall and booking offices. At the far end of the building was a store and a gentlemen's urinals which were, as always, only accessed from the outside. The booking offices and booking hall were accommodated in rooms on the right, immediately next to the station master's house (see image 'mra1286a' for plans of the station). The station was staffed with two station masters; a MR station master and a GWR station master, a practice thought to have dated from the opening of the Alcester Railway in 1876.
