    Class 50's and the GWML

    50s were also frequent visitors to B'ham New Street from Paddington throughout the 80's via Coventry and Solihull. Before refurbishment you could hear them "hoovering" a mile or so away! Typical turn was 1M11 from Padd (around 9ish departure) returning on 13.25 from New street. There was a...

    London Midland Class 150s Farewell

    The farewell is premature for 150001 it seems, as it is out this morning on the 06.45 Worcester - Dorridge etc with 153354 and should finish with the 17.28 from Dorridge tonight all being well.

    London Midland Class 150s Farewell

    I lst saw 150001 in service on Monday and with just one diagram being a 150 yesterday (Thursday) I'd say its very unlikely it will work a scheduled service train for LM again! Incidently, 106 was out with 109 on Wednesday and I assume that will be its last scheduled turn for LM as well...

    London Midland Class 150s Farewell

    The 172 switchover is almost complete now. The 07.09 Dorridge - Stourbridge Jn was 172214+218 this morning so that turn has gone now. But 150109+105 on 06.45 Worcester - Dorridge (former 150/0 +153 diagram) so that should be the only 150 operated diagram today. It finishes up on 17.28 from...

    Class 172 Production Progress

    Regarding 106+107, yes they did, I saw them depart Moor Street on the 17.28 Dorridge - Worcester Shrub Hill, which was the end of the 150/0 + 153 diagram.

    London Midland Class 150s Farewell

    Getting very near the end on the Snow Hill lines now. Tonight, the regular 17.45 Moor Street - Dorridge and 18.23 return to Snow Hill was a 172 along with the other turn that had a 150 on Monday and Tuesday the 17.42 Whitlocks End - Kidderminster. By my observations I only saw 2 diagrams...

    London Midland Class 150s Farewell

    I was on the UK Railtours "Mine of Serpents" tour on Saturday and the gen I overheard from people on board (who are going on the Farewell tour and have conatcted LM apparently) said that at Tyseley it will traverse one of the running sidings from the Birmingham end right through and onto and...

    London Midland class 150's

    Well, 150s still hanging on. This mornings obs: 150105+124 on 07.09 Dorridge - Kidderminster etc 150109+107 on 06.45 Worcester Shrub Hill - Dortidge etc in place of normal 150/0+153 combo. 124 was a nice change from one of the "safe" LM ones (107 or 109). Although viewing the 06.45 from...

    London Midland class 150's

    I caught the later train today so didn't manage to see what was on it but it's been out with 153364 on that diagram since Tuesday so I would say it is but don't blame me if Tyseley have swapped it :-)
