The 66 and wagons ran from Doncaster to Tyseley, where 50033 was collected and brought to the SVR at Kidderminster as 6Z33. The locos and wagons are seen arriving and setting back into the station. After uncoupling, the locos headed for the diesel yard and 33108 shunted the wagons.

As I wait for the flask, this just went by. Oh, don’t laugh – I messed up my shot of 6M56, accidentally switched camcorder off as I was trying to adjust LCD screen to try and see what I was filming!!!

Video – 66147 Old Hill, 30/05/18. Also 172218.
Due to engineering work south of Worcester, Round Oak trains couldn’t run through Norton Junction and the plan was to send them via the Lickey and Bescot. We won’t mention delays, but I don’t think all went to plan. Anyway, it gave me one train to see – 6V05 from Round Oak to Margam, which ran south to Worcester, then headed back north through Stourbridge and on up to Bescot, then Walsall and down the Lickey.

Video – Wythall Miniature Railway 28/05/18
Had a visit to the Museum and filmed the road vehicles and Miniature Railway. The Railway is featured in the video below:-
Video – Transport Museum, Wythall. 28/05/18
I know nothing about buses/coaches and didn’t make any notes of numbers or registrations, but took some video and have listed all registration numbers that I can see when playing it back. Also seen are some of the battery vehicles in the museum. Certainly plenty to see, but filming obviously not easy inside the buildings. I’m sure enthusiasts will recognise many more of the vehicles inside the building which are not showing in my number list. No doubt there are many more vehicles in the collection which do not appear in my video.

Video – train ride at Kinver S.M.E. 27/05/18
Three locos were running at the track during my brief visit. They will be seen in my other video which will be uploaded later. This video was intended to be the second video, but as it was late in the evening there was not time to upload the other first!! I filmed the full journey round the circuit, moving the camcorder from side to side a couple of times to keep it on the inside of the curve and give a better view of the loco and track.
