Olton near Tyseley, Birmingham?

Yes - there are a number of booked freight services on that route on
a Thursday; if you indicate your expected arrival and departure times,
I would be happy to provide details.

I commute on the Moor Street - Leamington line and know of the following regular workings:

EWS 66 South Modal thru Widney Manor around 07.55 so probably through Olton around 07.50 ish*(works M-S)
FLT 66 South Liner thru Widney Manor around 08.20 so Olton at 08.15 ish
(works M-S) this has been a 70 three times this week but don't rely on this.

EWS 66 northbound cars around 19.00 at Widney Manor (M-F)

On Saturdays there is a southbound FLT 66 on liners roughly on each hour at Solihull from 09.00 to 12.00 but some run as required.

I'm at work in between those times so can't let you have anymore details. The vast majority of these also go through washwood Heath and water orton too. Also, don't take the above times as gospel they are correct give or take 10 mins either side depending on traffic on the line. If busy, southbound freights normally wait between small Heath and Tyseley for a path south, or occasionally the loop just before Dorridge.

Hope that helps,

Gary
