PF warnings and the stroage of ramps are newer additions to the station

The central waiting room on Platforms 4&5, only Platforms 6&7 don't have one of these

New St box seen in portrait with a new tower involving John Frieda in someway but I can't remember the name of it

Seen with the Debenhams building in the lower foreground, this is a 3D model of how Birmingham New Street Gateway project should turn out

This view shows the new entrance that will be alongside platform 12 and provide a new entrance. I couldn't tell if the Navigation Street entrance will still be open, but I can't think why they'd close it

Here we can clearly see the mishmash of roads which characterise the western end of New Street station. Apart from the changes to the car park above, and the appearance of the Navigation Street footbridge, not much change can be seen

A close in view of the Navigation Street footbridge at the western end of New Street station. This will now extend to platform 12, and so I'd also imagine platform 1 will be incorporated too

This is a closer view of the southern entrance to New Street station. It seems so logical to have this entrance as it's the only side of the station that roads are at platform level, but for whatever reason this was not an area utilised much before. This area did previously house a lot of infrastructure for the Royal Mail trains, but now some parking has to be moved, along with most of the on board crew (except drivers) from CrossCountry train services based at New Street

Looking in to what used to be the west dock, alongside platform 12. The track and overhead wires have now been removed, presumably so that work on the footbridge extension and new entrance can begin

Taken from the end of platform 12b, looking west, you can see where the track and even points have been removed from the west dock

A vertical view of the plain line from platform 12b, replacing the pointwork in to the west dock

From under the roof, you can also see the strange cacophony of buildings for shunters and other staff that have been squeezed in. This is one of many areas of the station that are like individual, isloated labyrinths

With a London Midland turbostar bound for Hereford in platform 12b, we can claerly see where the track once lay. This dock was used for storage of standby locos, the station pilot Class 08 and latterly units for empty stock working or that had failed in service
