Vandals have caused almost £5,000 worth of damage after ripping the doors off cubicles in the public toilets at Birmingham New Street railway station.
The toilets had to be closed following the vandalism which took place on Wednesday evening.
Birmingham New Street posted about the damage on social media, saying the British Transport Police were "already on the case prosecuting those responsible".
A 30-year-old man has been arrested on suspicion of criminal damage and remains in police custody.
The post said: "Ta to whoever felt it necessary to leave our toilets in this state last night.
"Almost £5k of damage and a whole set of toilets out of order today.

A British Transport Police spokesman said: "Officers were called to the male toilets at Birmingham New Street shortly before midnight on Wednesday, to reports that they had been vandalised.
