The rather handsome new lights going up in the concourse. They are to be electric for the time being although Station Master Keith Redfern has a cunning plan to convert to gas at a future date. Photos: Colin Jenkins. |

Difficult to keep up with this fast moving construction! Just a week after the photos below the glazing is complete along the shop side and the scaffold down. And, left, the brickwork to the restaurant is progressing.

A few images taken 1st April. A scaffold platform has been built over the shop side of the concourse to allow glazing of the first section of the canopy.
The first few courses of bricks for the new restaurant have been laid. Left, the English bond pattern brickwork for the outer wall is starting to take shape.

Three views of construction work for the concourse canopy and restaurant. The canopy is being built first, before the buffet, and foundations for the pillars have been dug and concrete pored.
The steel work for the roof is currently being built off site and it's planned to start erecting this directly after the half-term week at the end February.  Photos: Colin Jenkins

 Two more views, a couple of days later with work progressing on the foundations and drainage. Photos: Paul Bennett

The concourse has now been cleared of kiosks, flagpoles, etc. and construction starts this week. Hopefully, we will post a few pictures as construction progresses.
One of the two kiosks being dismantled. It's been thoroughly numbered up to ensure it goes back together correctly. Photo: Paul Pearson |
And there it was gone! The 'temporary' buffet has been quickly cleared away. Photo: Paul Pearson |
