LMS Route: Birmingham New Street to Harborne

Rotton Park Station: lnwrrp84b

Close up of image 'lnwrrp84' showing details of Rotton Park Road station's footbridge, platform and the passenger building. Coal has been stored beneath the support for the footbridge. The gas lights required station staff light and extinguished them by hand and a moveable step ladder has been provided for staff. The step ladder would have two wheels at one end and moved by raising the opposite end. The small timber hut on the right would have been used by the Permanent Way gang to store spare equipment and tools.
