Summary

[edit]
Description

This is Shirley Station, off Haslucks Green Road in Shirley.

I decided to walk here from Shirley Town Centre, all the way down Haslucks Green Road.

It was a long way, just over a mile to walk. After getting these shots I got a couple of buses back (wasn't going to walk back).

I was going to get a shot of the station, then a bus came, so I went and got shots of the tracks. By the time the bus left, some passengers were outside the station.

I think a south bound London Midland train is waiting at Shirley.

Shirley railway station serves Shirley area of Solihull in the West Midlands of England. The station, and all trains serving it, are operated by London Midland.

The station was built in 1908, complete with small goods yard with goods shed. However, this has since been removed (though a siding still exists) and the site taken over by E H Smith.
