Gloucester Junction Ticket Platform

LMS Route: Birmingham New Street to Lichfield
LMS Route: Birmingham-Soho-Perry Barr-Birmingham

The platforms were required only for the collection of tickets from passengers as New Street station was built as an open station, that is without any barriers to the platforms. It is believed that Gloucester Junction Ticket Platform was closed being replaced by Banbury Street Ticket Platform.
