Smethwick Galton Bridge & Walsall - 29th February 2024 (Part 1)
At SGB we see 43062 & 43013 on the 1Q23 Stockport to Northampton NMT, and my first 'moving' 730 unit (not really exciting, but as it's the first one I've filmed..), then up to Walsall where I spent a couple of hours and saw 7 66's (managed to film 6 as we arrived at the same time as 66736, so I saw the wagons if nothing else)...and whilst it still wasn't very warm, at least it didn't rain..!
Part 2 to follow....
