[Image taken 1.9.21] York rail station. There used to be Sheffields for people visiting the ticket office (see: #165421). However, since spring 2021 the building is now a Sainsbury's (see also: #172777). (The racks are now here: #169923.) I believe the racks need to go back in, perhaps with a sign 'Short stay: Sainsbury's customers only' so people travelling with their cycles or arriving/departing the station on cycles can shop here. Cyclists are customers too. It's the place to buy your sarnie ahead of your train-assisted ride and a pint of milk and something for tea on your return. As I've done. But perhaps no more. There is now a 'no cycles' sign on the wall to the right of the camera position: #173700 and #173701. (Outside another place people shop.) There is a no cycles sign outside the current ticket office (see: #165420) and no cycle racks... Cyclists are rail passengers too.
