I enjoyed that film thanks, although at the start I thought it was a bit tedious to see all the stops between London and Birmingham. I've never been to Stourbridge Town but will put it on my list next time I treat myself to an all-line rover ticket. The Junction station looks very attractive, and I think a grand departure would be to take the Chiltern train down to London Marylebone. Well done for adding the historical interest, too.

I had thought of doing the class 68 back, but I would have got back home very late. May do the journey to Stourbridge that way next time I go to the area

I do hope that the Class 139 Parry People Mover doesn’t get replaced. They are very ideal reliable small bus like trains operating the Stourbridge Town branch line.

Great, so comprehensive that I don't have to go there myself. I notice that the branch is so short it offers a 10 minute service using a single unit! I hope the driver has other duties...

When the train leaves Stourbridge Junction towards Birmingham, it turns right into a 15mph bend. But the line also carries straight on. How many trains use that 'straight on' line, or is it just for freight?
@RainhamRailEnthusiast3 жыл бұрын
My belief is it's just freight, however I think there is/was a campaign to open it up to passenger traffic. www.stourbridge.com/stourbridge-line.htm

I did'nt really have the local knowledge to realise that was an option. However when I revisit in the future I will probably use Chiltern from Marylebone.

Yes they do, in a modified ford diesel engine, to add initial power to the flywheel and to power the other electrics on the train.

"Take care on the stairs". Most people do. Only 3-yr-olds need to be told this. "Don't rush". Why not? Maybe I want to rush. What's it got to do with you? What a ghastly little place - not a soul to be seen unless the cat has a soul. Worse than East Croydon and that's saying something.
