The next set of pics were taken during Feb 2004.

The view from Lawrence Hill looking back towards the bridge at Dulcie Road.
|
|
A close up of the bridge which is bathed in strong afternoon sunlight.
|
|
Across the road bridge and the view of the removed main lines. I used to stand here and watch loose-coupled freights crawl along while on my way to the model railway shop next door.
|
|
The view of the station from the roadbridge.
|
|
In brilliant winter sunshine, 150236 heads towards Temple Meads.
|
|
A general view of the station looking in the direction of Bristol.

Looking north. The bridge in the distance carried the LMS mainline out of Temple Meads across the GWR one and is now in use as a cyclepath.
|
|
When a supermarket was built on the site of the goods yard they included this new entrance to the station.
|
|
A train bound for Edinburgh hurtles through the station.
|
|
The signal at the end of Platform 2. This protects the start of Dr Days Junction
|
|
The view under Lawrence Hill (the road) from Platform 2. Ducie bridge is in the background.
|
|
Looking along the platform with electrical boxes and shelters in view.
|
|
The view north from Platform 2 with G.W.Bridge No.6 in the background and Easton Road behind that.
|
|
A view of Lawrence Hill taken from the Midland Railway overbridge. As you can see the entire area that used to be the goods yard and cement terminal has disappeared under new buildings. Note the two giant footballs at the right of this pic!
