Rugby Station: lnwrrm858

View of one of the two ramps which provided access from the main entrance via the pedestrian underpass which ran from one side of the station to the other, seen on 13th April 1954. Both ramps ran either side of the structure above and were the full length of the structure. The underpass only had one grand entrance that seen in the main views whilst the other entrance was very much a poorer affair as it led on to Murray Road providing access to the BTH and Thomas Hunters factories. The number of bicycles demonstrates just how important the railways were for the average commuter. The 'Way Out' sign is a standard LNWR design constructed out of timber whilst adjacent to it is the new British Railways 'totem' sign in their London Midland Region corporate livery of 'white' letters on a maroon background.
