The monthly 1Q15 Derby – Landore TMD test train. I hurried down the platform as the local train was arriving as I knew the test train had already passed through Old Hill. Got ready to film it with seconds to spare

Had the chance of an hour or so spare this morning and with 2 freights to see at Stourbridge thought it would be a worthwhile outing. All went well until the second train appeared much sooner than expected. Can’t win ’em all.

Part 2, 75069 arrives, 13268 departs, 75069 runs round & departs. 46045 doing a bit of shunting, but the diesel clips will be uploaded when steam videos completed. 46045 was stabled under the footbridge when I started filming the arrival of 75069, it was ticking over and sounded quite loud!!

Up on the footbridge for the rest of my time at Kidderminster. It was very windy and not easy filming towards the sun when facing south, it was very bright and low in the sky.
This link will show all the Diesel Day photos in the gallery.
Here are the next set of photos:-
5Q80 Allerton – Newport Docks. The Class 319 was heading to the scrap yard. Fortunately 172343 on a train heading towards Birmingham cleared in plenty of time. Pity the Class 37 was just ambling along, a few minutes early & following a stopping train.
