AN outdoor gallery of eye-catching artwork has been unveiled at Sutton Coldfield railway station, featuring woodland creatures and a map of local attractions.
-
Representatives from West Midlands Railway (WMR) and Network Rail visited the station to celebrate the completion of the project by the Spaghetti Line community station partnership.
The murals were commissioned by the local adopters following a £26,600 funding package from WMR to improve the station as part of the operator's Your Community, Your Fund scheme.
Funded by the Department for Transport, the scheme is aimed at inspiring people to get involved with the railway.
