Birmingham Moor St station

Randomly browsing t'interwebby, came across this, a city-centre terminus restored & rebuilt to 1930's GWR standards!

-never heard of it before, looks quite intriguing!

Too right it should be restored to it's former glory, I hope there will be "steam" loco's going between here & London, that would draw fans in.

There are lots of steam specials between Birmingham and Stratford upon Avon on Sundays during the summer. They go to Snow Hill and use the through platforms at Moor Street. Shakespeare Express I think.

Unfortunately I think the last one of the season ran this weekend, though in previous years there have been Christmas shopping specials too. I am sure the information is available online somewhere.
