Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Wolverhampton Low Level Station The Grade 2 listed building was opened in 1855 on the GWR lines from Birmingham Snow Hill. It was in competition with the LMS,Stour Valley, line from Birmingham New Street to the adjacent High Level Station. Electrification of the WCML in the 1960s led to a reduction and final closure of passenger services in 1972. A parcels service continued until 1981. British Rail Divisional Engineer's Department used the building until it was purchased by the town council in May 1986. It has been unused for twenty years whilst numerous schemes have come and gone for museums, heritage parks, casinos, sporting and retail developments. At long last a scheme has come to fruition!
