The former GPO link between New Street and the Sorting Office (now the Mailbox) is quite interesting. The entrance to it is in the subway which runs under the platforms at New Street towards the B end of the platform and is secured by gates. It then runs on a curve upwards to the Mailbox (the entrance at the Mailbox end is also secured). From time to time it has been open to the public (including a laser light show). Also at New Street off the end of Platform 12B are several odd rooms including a Print Room - next to it in the corridor when I went there was a BR International poster on the wall from 1973 (this was about 18 months ago)
Fascinating! I'll look out for those...any idea if the tunnel will be opened to the public again?
