From the Wikipedia article
Birmingham Moor Street, also known as Moor Street station, is one of three main railway stations in the city centre of Birmingham, in the West Midlands, England; the other two are New Street and Snow Hill. Today's Moor Street station is a combination of the original station, opened in 1909 by the Great Western Railway as a terminus for local trains, and a newer Moor Street station with through platforms, a short distance from the original, which opened in 1987. The two were combined into one station in 2002, when the original was reopened and restored; the newer station was rebuilt in a matching style. The station has become more important in recent years; two of the original platforms were reopened in 2010 and the station is now a northern terminus of many Chiltern Railways services on the Chiltern Main Line to London Marylebone, as well as being an important stop for local services on the Snow Hill Lines. It is now the second busiest railway station in Birmingham.
