Looking towards the Central Goods Depot with the Matthew
Boulton Technical College building towering above the rebuilt warehouse on 26th
April 1954. A former Midland Railway 0-6-0 3F can be seen marshalling wagons
for unloading beneath the large canopy, the only surviving part of the
warehouse which was damaged during air raids in 1940. The photographer is
standing on the steps of the Signal Box controlling the access to the goods
yard. Hill Street, on which the Midland portion of New Street station faced,
was one street behind Suffolk Street and located in the direction of the church
spire.
