Curzon Street Station (Birmingham)

 office building, 1830s construction, Grade I Listed (UK), former train/railway station

Birmingham Curzon Street railway station (formerly Birmingham station) was a railway station in Birmingham, England, opening in 1838 and closing in 1966. The station was used by scheduled passenger trains between 1838 and 1854 when it was the terminus for both the London and Birmingham Railway and the Grand Junction Railway, with lines to London, Manchester & Liverpool respectively. Excursion trains ran until 1893 after which only goods trains operated until closure in 1966. More recently, the surviving Grade I listed entrance building was used for occasional art events.

In 2010, a new Curzon Street station on the site of the historical station, was proposed as the Birmingham terminus for High Speed 2. in 2017 plans were approved to redevelop the Grade 1 listed building to turned it into a visitor centre and office space for HS2 and other organisations. HS2 hopes to use the station as the hub for its high-speed line linking London and Birmingham - although these plans are still being developed.
