MEGA Thrash from D1015 Western Champion, 1Z56 London Paddington to Birmingham N/S @ Marston Green.
But it all worked out great as a northbound Avanti train lost time at Coventry by 4 mins which made the stopper late at Marston Green, and the Western was stuck behind the class 350 to Rugeley Trent Valley which give me some great Western footage.
Luck wasn't on my side at Birmingham New St as the LE move back to the SVR was running late and didn't go through its booked platform.
A video captures footage of a Western train at Marston Green, where it was delayed due to an Avanti train heading south. The delay allowed for the filming of the Western as it was held behind another train bound for Rugeley Trent Valley. Additional details mention movements involving Avanti West Coast, British Railways, Cross Country, Intercity, and Network Rail at locations including London Paddington, Birmingham New Street, Coventry, Kidderminster, Marston Green, Marton, Rugeley Trent Valley, and the Severn Valley Railway.
