Couldn’t make up my mind what I was going to do – forecast was for cloudy weather, but do they ever get it right? Bright sunshine when I left home, then dark clouds by the time I reached Stourbridge. Decided to try the fields by the river at Arley, into the sun, which decided to shine when I didn’t really want it to! It was too sunny for that angle so I went up above Victoria Bridge for the long shots, but you need sun for those, and you can’t guarantee it will always shine. Ended up at Arley station for shots of 1501 before heading home. Other locos seen were 34053, 42968, 43106 & visiting 44871.

Makes a change to do something a bit different.
