Superb lighting at Northwood Lane, on the Severn Valley Railway, on 14 October 1989. In addition to the normal preserved diesel locomotives, the line had a visiting BR multiple unit for their diesel gala. The Class 114s were nearing the end of their life at the time, and Tyseley set T022 (54047 & 53002) was chosen to represent the fast diminishing heritage DMU fleet. It is seen here passing Northwood Lane, en-route from Bridgnorth to Kidderminster. No doubt some of the waiting photographers ignored it, as it just a DMU, despite the very brief burst of well timed sunshine. |
