View of the entrance to the refreshment room from the up
platform showing mail bags loaded on trolleys on 13th April 1954. The
'Refreshment Room' sign above the doorway is a standard LNWR design. Whilst
there are still many posters evident the large station name board has been
removed when compared to image 'lnwrrm1533'. The
wire mesh containers filled with straw are most probably containing large glass
bottles filled with liquid being sent as parcel traffic. The rooms on the first
floor were used for a variety of purposes including providing sleeping
accommodation for staff, especially refreshment personnel.
