Ozzy Puts The Bull Into New Street Station

I went to Birmingham New Street station today to see Ozzy, the Birmingham Bull in his new home.

I don’t think we’ve seen such a camera frenzy in the UK, since the days of Princess Diana.

In The Birmingham Bull – 5th August 2022, there are pictures of the Bull a year ago. Ozzy has changed, but a year ago, he wasn’t intended to be permanent.

This picture is from last year.

There are differences. Note the loader underneath to give the artwork movement.

A year ago, I said this in the post.

This wonderful work of engineering art, is far too good and is now too well-loved to be scrapped.

As it needs to go inside, why not bring it inside High Speed Two’s new Curzon Street station, to greet passengers visiting Birmingham?

Ozzy has found a new permanent home in Birmingham New Street station, but I wouldn’t rule out a move to Curzon Street station, for several decades.
