Title
Halifax Station Approach. - LYR00162
Description
LYRS 2695 - Halifax Station Approach - general view. With the construction of the GNR platforms and lines to the front of the 1855 Station Building in the 1880s a new large entrance and facilities building was built on a higher level accessed by the road bridge over the lines which is still used today. The station was operated jointly by the L&YR and the GNR but each had their own platforms, refreshment facilities, waiting rooms and also their own booking offices seen here early 20th Century. Then as now cabs waiting outside. The large entrance building has now gone and the original station building is now used in connection with the Eureka Children's Museum with car parking and play area where the tracks used to be. Two platforms behind the building, still with canopies, remain in use.
