Birmingham New Street Station: lnwrbns_str1866a
Close up of image 'lnwrbns_str1866' showing the top of the
steps to Western section of Platform 1 with a signalman standing on duty at New
Street No 3 Signal Cabin. The signalman is obviously observing the arrival or
departure of a train because six minutes earlier (note the time on the clock)
in image 'lnwrbns_str1865a' he and another
member of staff were paying more attention to the photographer than the trains.
In the distance on Platform 3 and to the right of the station building housing
the restaurant is a small Police Hut overseeing the arrival of handsome cabs on
Queens Drive.
