This print takes us back to the bustling Reading Station in Berkshire, circa 1994. The image showcases the main concourse of this iconic transportation hub, revealing a glimpse into its rich history and architectural design. Having undergone redevelopment in 1989, the station boasts a modernized look that perfectly captures the essence of the late 20th century. The photograph highlights one of the most striking features of this redeveloped station: a set of escalators leading up to platforms 5 to 10. These escalators not only serve as functional means for commuters but also add an element of grandeur and sophistication to the overall aesthetic appeal. As we delve deeper into this snapshot from yesteryears, it becomes evident that Reading Station was more than just a transit point; it was also a vibrant retail destination.
