circa 1993

Bentley Heath crossing is a few hundred yards to the north of Dorridge station and the footbridge there offers a decent viewoint in either direction. This picture shows 2 coach 117211 (presumably 51376 + 51334) crossing over the pointwork from the up main line to the down platform loop with a local train from Birmingham Moor Street to Dorridge. These still ran at regular intervals throughout the day with one per hour being extended to Stratford-upon-Avon although in August 2021 these are replaced with buses between Dorridge and Stratford because of train crew shortages. Circa 1993. Peter Tandy.
