This print takes us back to the 1960s, offering a glimpse into the past of Birmingham's bustling cityscape. The image showcases the exterior view of Snow Hill Railway station, shortly after its closure in 1967. Once a vibrant hub of activity, this architectural gem now stands silent and abandoned. The photograph beautifully captures the grandeur of Snow Hill station's design, with its intricate detailing and imposing presence. The Victorian-era architecture is evident in every corner, reflecting an era when railway stations were not just functional spaces but also works of art. As we delve deeper into the image, our eyes are drawn to the surrounding street scene. Trains that once ferried passengers to various destinations now sit idle on deserted tracks.
