HS2 – Curzon Street station site, Eastside, Birmingham (2)
The view is from a Cross City Line train approaching New Street. The new station will extend some way to the left (west), possibly right up to Moor Street Queensway, while the 1838 Curzon Street station came only as far as Philip Hardwick's hotel and refreshment room, now listed Grade I
