SVR 28th June, including a Spitfire!

Got to Arley earlier than yesterday, so saw more trains. From down by the river, 7714 was seen heading south towards the station, a few minutes later 7802 was seen northbound. Then up at the station 42968 arrived first on a n/b train, then 7812 s/b. Next, the diner arrived behind 46443, which ran round before taking the train back to Kidderminster. Almost forgot, 4566 was seen entering Arley as we walked back to the car.

Due soon after 1.40 was a Spitfire. We saw it in the distance circling above Highley before heading south and over Arley. As yesterday, it was closely following the curvature of the railway, banking to the right above us then to the left as it crossed the river. On the n/b flight I managed more photos, one shown below:-
