“On This Day” (years ago) Feb 15th. 2002, 2007, 2010 & 2016

One of my very early digital photos from 2002 of 150101 at Old Hill, then jumping forward to a view of  The Engine House under construction in 2007 and in 2010 at Small Heath 31105 is leaving a hazy exhaust behind it. The big event for me, on video, was the GBRf convoy of 8 locos, including “Evening Star” near Hagley in 2016.

Awful quality but I was just testing the camera, a local train approaching Old Hill in 2003. Those trees have grown a lot since then!

In 2010 a brief visit to Small Heath to see 31105.
