Class 116 DMU at Birmingham Moor Street

×

Details

The terminus platforms at Moor Street station in Brimingham closed in September 1987 and the GWR's principal station in the city, Snow Hill, was rebuilt in a less attractive but more modern style and took over services along with 2 through platforms at a reconstructed Moor Street.

This was the scene in 1986 while the civil engineering works were taking place on the renewed track bed leading to Snow Hill tunnel. A class 116 DMU is in one of the platforms and a BL Morris 1800 stands next to a Lada estate in some spare land.

The terminus platforms at Moor Street were later reinstated to provide extra capacity for Chiltern Trains' services between Birmingham and London Marylebone.
