Platforms 13 and 15 at Bristol Temple Meads (there is no platform 14, but I'm not certain why), were closed for many years. During this time all the station signage was replaced by the standard BR type, but these platforms escaped. When the platforms were reopened a couple of years ago, they decided to retain this historic sign for the subway - rightly in my opinion.<BR>
Platforms 1 and 2 do exist, but are bay platforms accessed from platform 3. Platform 2 is currently not used for passenger services, whether this was also true of platform 1 when the sign was made I don't know.
