Expectation
These passengers are anticipating the arrival of the 15:10 Bristol Parkway to Weston-super-Mare service here at Bristol Temple Meads station on Saturday 18th January 2020.
This island platform (numbers 10 & 12 here at the west end) and its canopy date from the station's expansion in the 1930s. The vacant space on the left was once occupied by Bath Road diesel depot, a facility that was demolished after its closure in 1995. The site was later earmarked for the proposed 12,000 seater Bristol Arena, a covered entertainment venue of a size and versatility that the city currently lacks. However, that project was finally (?) scrapped in 2018 following repeated delays and lack of progress.
