ring 2 Stourbridge

milder weather - heating off and window open

I am watching the racing from Aintree for three afternoons

GRAND NATIONAL tomorrow

just missed that 11c bus after getting off the 97

cop shop on the corner

towards the circular bus 11c stop I thought of getting of at Bourneville

but stayed on until Dudley Road and hopped onto a numbger 9 to Stourbridge

where glass blowing used to be the local industry

very fancy toilets

the shuttle train was cautiously dropping down the hill

buffers at the end of the branch line

Stourbidge station for buses and the shuttle service train

only two passengers

£1000 fine for trespassing on the line

at Stourbridge Junction Station "All change" but this train may be at the end of its life

Centro main line to Birmingham

from the train window around sunset

around Cradley Heath on the way back

peeking on tip toe down from Moor Street station footbridge into the LMS was LNWR and MR lines underneath then bus 97 back to Merton House
