LMS Route: Evesham to Birmingham

Evesham Station: mre1326

View looking from High Street over bridge looking West towards Ashchurch on 13th November 1962. This partially oblique view shows the proximity of the goods shed on the left which was opposite the main station building located on the up platform on the right. The water crane seen on the right was typical of that used by the MR and its successor, the LMS. It was designed to swing out over a locomotive's tender or bunker and when not in use, was secured by chain to be parallel to the running track.
