'The Stratford Flyer' - Small Heath with 45212 & 57314 - 8th March 2025
Running as 1Z65 with 'Black 5' 45212 and 57314 'Conway Castle', 'Sharpo' and I went across to Small Heath to see it...flipping good job that 172 unit wasn't a stopper, or there would have been a lot of muttering...
We also saw three freights out of Small Heath Caledonia Yard and a Reading bound Class 57, which I'll do on another video...
Thanks for watching...
