LMS Route: Evesham to Birmingham

Salford Priors station: mrsp1353a

Close up of image 'mrsp1353' showing the road over bridge on the left and Salford Priors station building on the right. The road bridge had been built to accommodate double track, a standard precaution adopted by most railways when erecting such structures. The cost of building the bridge would have not been as substantial as the cost of replacing it at a later date. The railway had been built as double track between Ashchurch and Evesham and therefore this might have influenced the railway's Board of Directors thinking when planning the railway north of Evesham.
