I’d heard there was another training run from Stourbridge today & managed to get back from Bridgnorth just in time to see it. Only had to wait about 4 minutes for it to appear, probably checked by signals as the preceding DMU would have stopped at Rowley Regis. Typically dull weather round the “Dark Side”! As is usual with Old Hill, the spare path almost always coincides with a train running in the opposite direction – a real nightmare, as the photo shows.
