Picture of the Day
Transport for Wales Class 158 units Nos. 158834 and 158839 pass Spon Lane, West Bromwich on Thursday 2 February 2023, with the 07.31 (1L10) Holyhead to Birmingham International service. This is the site of Spon Lane station, which was opened by the London and North Western Railway in 1852, and closed on 15 June 1964. This vista has been made possible by recent tree clearing work, but what protagonists of the ‘Keep Britain Tidy’ campaign will make of the amount of litter left behind remains to be seen!.
