Cross City, Birmingham

Hi

I'm looking for photos of Gravelly Hill and Erdington ststions on Birmingham's Cross City line which runs from Redditch to Lichfield.
I've tried Google but I think i've exhausted that avenue...

I'm particularly interested in pictures taken prior to the lines electrification in the early 1990s.

Thanks in advance
TM

Yes Sam

I'm after something that shows in particular the layout of platform buildings prior to the redevelopment of the line at Gravelly Hill (the booking office building is well documented), and the whole station at Erdington before the new booking office was built in the early 1990s

Hi TM,


This may be of help.Oxford Publishing Co produced 2 volumes on LMS Stations.Volume 1 contained photos and plans of both stations.It may no longer be in print but I may be able to do you a copy if you let me have your email details.I assume that I am not in breach of copywiright.
