Summary

Description
English: Euston express leaving New Street Station.
View eastwards from the end of Platforms 4/5 in the ex-LNW part (not long shorn of its great glazed arch roof) of New Street Station to the New Street Tunnel, just six months after Nationalisation. LMS Rebuilt 'Patriot' 6P 4-6-0 No. 45531 'Sir Frederick Harrison' (newly painted in the experimental green livery applied by its new owners 'British Railways') heads a set of (?matching) carmine-&-cream coaches forming a Wolverhampton High Level to London Euston express. It was a resplendent sight in the grim surroundings.
