LMS Route: Birmingham New Street to Nuneaton
Nuneaton Abbey Street Station: mrna1095
Looking in the direction of Birmingham as a three-car Craven
DMU set arrives from New Street station on Saturday 2nd March 1968. Its two
days prior to the official closure of the station but in essence as this is the
last day schedule services will call its the final date of operation. The
service in future will call at the LNWR station before rejoining the former
Midland line to Leicester. The original station opened in 1864 by the MR was
built 150 yards beyond the end of the platforms near to the curve in the
track.
