Coventry Station: lnwrcov599

Looking towards the parcel depot's offices built at the Birmingham end of Coventry's up platform. An ex-LMS 50 ft Brake Van in British Railway's maroon livery stands in the siding. This view shows mix of different styles of building reflecting the ad-hoc building of the station over sixty plus years. On the extreme right part of the 1848 building can be seen with the Station sign mounted on its face. Behind and towering above is the main station building constructed as part of the 1901-4 extension whilst to its left is the brick built parcels store built a decade earlier.
