5000 Eardington 18 June 1984

Prototype 'Black 5' 4-6-0 5000 approaches Eardington Halt on 18 June 1984 en-route from Bridgnorth to Bewdley. The final section of the line to Kidderminster opened the following month. It looks like the trees in the background have been scorched by a lineside fire at some point.
