GWR Route: Banbury to Wolverhampton
Leamington Spa Station: gwrls2097
View of the water crane located at the London end of Leamington
station's up platform in July 1966. The decline of both passenger and goods
traffic from the late 1950s forced British Railways to rationalise their
network and goods facilities. As can be seen in the above photograph, the
volume of traffic had by the mid-1960s declined significantly on the former GWR
London to Birmingham route resulting in the goods loop being taken out of
service.
