8X09 20s & Tube stock at Small Heath

I saw this working once before at Dorridge, when it was stabled in the loop during the day. This time I had the opportunity to see it, hopefully, in sunlight during the evening. As I waited for it to appear, I could see the sun sinking lower in the sky & was hoping it would still be bright as the train passed by. The DMU shot was a good test for the light, which had faded by the time the 20s appeared. Afterwards, I wondered if I could see the train again at Dorridge, as it was booked into the loop. Within a couple of minutes I was on a local train to Moor Street and across to the other platform to wait for a train to Dorridge. It was in the loop, but the light was very poor - an opportunity to try the image stabilizer and a slow exposure. The camera was hand held at 1/30th second, not brilliant shots, but considering how poor the light was they're not too bad.
