D8188 had been at Washwood Heath for about a year for some repair work & was hauled back to the Severn Valley Railway behind 47727. The locos are seen passing Old Hill on the way to Kidderminster. The 47 should have returned with 37906, which has been sold and is to be overhauled for main line work, but the move was cancelled. Running very late, 47727 is seen on the way back to Washwood Heath. Several of us had been waiting at Old Hill, but gradually drifted away as time passed by – I was half way home when I noticed it had left, so about turn & back to the station. Sorry Martin, I would have sent you a text if I had your number!!!
