Snow Hill Sprinters

In the gloom of Birmingham Snow Hill station can be seen two examples of the British Rail Class 150 "Sprinter" train. The one nearest camera is on its way to Shirley.

 

The fashion now is for light, airy structures. Snow Hill isn't either of these, with its thick concrete pillars and overhead development. It is nodding at its much grander, darker and dingier cousin Birmingham New Street.
